To me, the taillights look like its from the 80s and 90s. Amazing job.

[@Garageless]

So the best years lol appreciate the comment and viewa

[@FieroKyle]

Absolutely awesome. Super creative and doesn’t look like it cost you an arm and a leg. That’s so cool

[@Garageless]

About 200$

[@moeislam9512]

Can you do that to my lights I’ll pay you l

[@finalanarky7]

Came for the diy info, stayed for the fiero 😍

[@Garageless]

Its a lifestyle lol

[@stevenwilliams6356]

Can make a 9" infinity mirror I'm looking to put it in the grill of my Cadillac dts and I'm going to put the emblem on it. So if you can I will pay you for it.

[@evlutionzllc5519]

This is extremely cool. You are doing the exact things I have been thinking about doing to a Fiero, DIY wide body and these tail lights. I may never actually do them but at least I know now that it isn’t totally uncharted territory and can be done. Thank you for doing this.

[@Garageless]

Do it lol and thanks

[@BlueButtonMasher]

Really wanted to see what they look like when you look straight into them.

[@austincase914]

Love it! I've need to make someone like that for one of my projects. Tip on printed parts- If you use ABS, you can smooth with a acetone vapor bath. Makes it look like a production plastic part. I recommend UV protection too. Petg is also good for automotive use.

[@Garageless]

Yea petg is what i use prints easy and no shrinkagae or warping like abs can

[@austincase914]

@@Garageless also, have you tried a concentric top layer on round parts? It gives you a smoother and better looking top on cylinders

Looks awesome, also the skit at the beginning wasn't half bad. Glad to see you did the lights, also Paul's printer looks pretty good, hope he's done some playing with the dual extrusion.

[@Garageless]

We just now got it working really good... petg is good shit!

[@ExtraFungus]

@@Garageless yep and petg should hold up well. I've noticed the black stuff his a little more brittle but it should hold up really well in that application. I used to print drones in petg.

id reccomend putting the seam on the LEDs on top next time and thank you you're a genius im doing this !

[@Garageless]

I made a diffuser insert that completely eliminated that essentially... but still would b worth putting it at top... ill b revising the design again this winter

[@filmart430]

That looks nice. You should keep the middle “Pontiac” and light that up.

Those tail lights are badass!! Great job! You should make them & sell them. People will buy em up. Anyway, nice look, and Awesome 3D lights! 👍

[@Garageless]

Gotta run em and find the flaws first

[@gearedupkim9516]

Garageless For sure, but you could be on to something big there. Good luck 👍 Happy New Year! Keep up the good work & videos👍

[@beardoe6874]

Very nice project and well executed. You might try a diffuser to create a uniform ring of light rather than the individual LED look, entirely a matter of preference and cool either way.

[@Garageless]

I thought about it... ill have do some tests

[@erendyalatorre7785]

I *NEED THESE* for my 1987 project

[@mattdionne9907]

Legend

[@AmaroqStarwind]

All they're missing are the yellow turn signals. Turn signals that are some shade of yellow (preferably amber) are much easier to notice quickly, and are harder to mistake for a messed up taillight. So far, the United States is one of the few countries that still allows red turn signals.

[@Garageless]

Another thing jve noticed is there are not bright enough in direct daylight

[@tommystensland7016]

Nice!!!

[@StevieCzykPN]

Ahhh, the lost art of keyboard typing.. the galloping finger technique!

[@davieanwilliams9205]

Thanks

[@russhagan861]

Nice

[@John-rw9bv]

Epic build, i've never seen this before - maybe next time throw in a strip of frosted plastic over the LEDs so you can't make out the individual LEDs (like a kind of blur). It looks cool with individual LEDs, but i think the blur would make it look more professional, like "light bars" on BMWs and Audis.

[@Garageless]

I did just that in the 2nd video i did for these...

[@karrobba]

Curious, how does it look at night, with a headlight behind you...does the reflection affect the lights?

[@Raishikaku]

Looks Nice. Im curious about the effect of external lights on it, considering the mirror inside , like a car behind with bright lights.

[@TiresAndSmoke]

Dude! just saw that Ronald Finger just gave you a shutout for your fiero project! pretty cool to see somebody with over 200,000 subs notice you and what youre doing. thought you would be happy to know that.

[@Garageless]

I talk with ronnie he is good guy!

[@Garageless]

Which video? Must have been Lightspeeds fiero

[@jzflsrtis300]

Wow amazing. I wonder if you can do it on my 2003 Toyota Alteza rear tail light.

[@calebloewen9935]

How did you wire it? Did you run the power through the controller out to the lights? If so did you have to run different controllers for the running and brake lights? Or did you only run the signal wire to the controller and power it separately from the lights?

[@Garageless]

There is 4 wires in my case off the for the rear... Brake/left turn-12vto5v-controler-to inner led... Brake/Right turn-12vto5v-controler-to inner led... Running lights-12vto5v-controler-to outer led... Last wire was ground-to all 12v to 5v converters...

[@everythingkkustom7306]

How did u program them for the brake and turn signal separately

[@BoostedSnorlax]

You deserve so many more subscribers man! Just subbed. Amazing video and very informative! Will be coming back to this one when I've ordered some lights. I'm wanting to put them on my chaser but they have oblong clusters. Do you thing a oblong infinity light would still look ok?

[@Garageless]

Yea it should work np... the make square ones any shape will work basically itll just be in that shape obviously

[@BoostedSnorlax]

@@Garageless thankyou, I'll see how I get on 😁

[@Skirrrrr]

Intelligent idea I work like to buy one for my car

[@Garageless]

I just made the one set

[@finnAndrei]

How did you make one controller control all of the strips? And also what brand controllers did you use?

[@Garageless]

Its 1 remote controlling 3 different sp103e controllers...

[@Draydel]

How did you solder each light? My solder isn’t sticking to those little LED copper terminals (for each addressable LED)

[@Garageless]

I had to heat the underside of tab and touch the solder to top of tab to get it to stick...

[@SeaneyBoyism]

So do i have to use a converter for each light strip? Or can i wire em all together to one.

[@Garageless]

All to one should work thats kinda how mine is

[@musclekingmedia]

Would be sick if you can make the white turn on for reverse. Good stuff man!

[@Garageless]

Its possible im sure above my paygrade

[@elijahlopez1425]

can you do different shaped tail lights? rectangle or square shaped? Or something long like a Dodge Charger 2020 tail light?

Me personally no just made these for my fiero as a hobbyist... but anything is possible if you really want something... i wanted these tailights so i designed and made em happen

How reflective is the mirror tint in the sun? It doesn’t look like it is reflective in your demo.

Its slightly reflective for sure in direct sunlight... ik they are kinda dim in sunlight but at night very noticeable

This is so beautiful 😍. But do you do any special multi colors leds for Dodge Chargers? Or can you make a video for one? Please 🥺

Unfortunately this is just a hobby for me... these are multi color rgb addressable leds...

[@Drunken_Hamster]

They now make COB and FCOB LED strips that are much higher LEDs per inch and are diffused by design. Check 'em out if you ever wanna do a refit on this design. Also, is there a way to set up amber turn signals while still having red running and brake lights? Amber/yellow turn signals are SO much nicer driving behind people than red. Much more obvious that they're turning/changing lanes.

I used dremel its acrylic and the mirrors i ordered size i wanted but also acrylic

[@gopro2027]

@@Garageless I just realized I also commented 7 months ago here haha. Anyways, what thickness acrylic did you use and where can I buy it from? I assume too thick would be hard for a dremmel to cut through. And lastly, would you recommend just cutting 2 identical acrylic for front and back, and using a two way mirror film for the front one and a 1 way mirror film for the back one?

[@Garageless]

Not sure thickness it was common plexiglass thickness... all depends on your design but mine where both same size i believe

[@Garageless]

I rough cut it then used belt sandwr to do edges... my edges are hidden from how i designed it to go together but should b able to get em pretty good

[@gopro2027]

@@Garageless That's what I'm thinking too, if I design the 3d printed frame well enough and maybe 3d print a nice part to base the plexiglass cutouts from then it might be good enough to get away with rough edges.
