During the last Malibu run, it was brought to my attention the my brake lights are not bright. The gentleman who told me this mentioned a user who makes LED tail light kits. can someone please point me in his direction?

I have the full compliment of Spoke's LED lights.
During a Teenerpaluza run I had someone come up and tell me my brake lights were always on. So of course I checked, Nope just the tail lights. They are so bright it looks like brake lights. And when the brake lights come on brighter still. I would actually like the regular taillights to be a little Less bright. |

I would actually like the regular taillights to be a little Less bright. You're not the first one to mention this. I'm thinking of toning down the running lights on future builds. You can do a simple modification to reduce the taillight intensity. There are 3 resistors which determine the taillight brightness. Removing one will reduce the brightness. The resistor can be either unsoldered (you'll likely need 2 solder pencils) or just crush one of the resistors with a good set of needle nose pliers. You won't void the warranty. Give me a shout if for more info if interested. I could do it for you if you want as well. |
