LED Turn Signal Knight Rider Style.

Post by 93_mx3_gs »

What do you think ? With the right color matching ( for me I'm white with blue. White car, blue brake calipers, blue silicone hoses, blue this, blue that ) It wouldn't look too shabby.

Need a control boxand relay to hook directly into the turn signals so when you click left, the leds run left in a endless loop until turned or turn signal level switch off and same for the right.


A little bit of fiberglass work to make a shell for them and mount them right in the stupid tiny grill insert area.

I actually like it...I want to do close to the same thing, except I don't' want them to be hooked into my turn signals...just have it flashing when I have all my other blue lights on. Let me know how it turns out.

Of the schematic or the prototype? This is an IC bases circuit that I can modify to reqired specifications. The original project simply flashed 16 bi-color LED's. email me for an avi sample.

It can easily be converted to power LED's not mounted on the circuit board by using a suitable wire harness for any ap.
