You said you want to do something nobody else has done.
Those Escalade tails are nice but they are HUGE and over-used in the street scene.
I say do what NOBODY in the street scene has done (from what I have seen, I am sure there is somebody) and build your own from scratch using all aftermarket LED lights....
You willsee that lots of off road guys do this, especially Jeeps. They get those 3" round LED's (like buses use) and plumb those into their Cj's. I am talking 1 or 2 steps further......
I plan to:
a. make a new housing for the taillights on my BII that will bolt to the body just like stock.
b. use some micro crystal fog lights for reverse
c. use some small yellow LED (oval shaped likely) for turn signals
d. use some oval shaped red leds (x2) for parking and brake
I have been working on the design in CAD, I'll post it when its a little more finished.....
The end design will be VERY trick. The reverse lights will be bright, the turn signal will be angled so it can be seen from side or rear, and the parking and brake will face flat with the back of the truck...
hard to explain w/o pics.....
N E ways I really want to do something with the BII tail lights because my side markers are now LED, the front yellow lenses (parking) are almost gone (waiting on clears, which I will convert to LED) and my headlights are already Hella H4, so the tailights just look dated......
I will be using lots of fiberglass and metal.....
