getting there This will be a good venture because after i slave on these boards engineering and building them for 25 hours, all i have to do is ship them to you and you plug them in. $200 in led's. So it isn't bad at all.

Will this board be designed for the 95 and 97+ tail lights as well?

this board will go in anything. they are sectioned off, there will be a few of them. this allows removal of only one portion if the led's ever fail. Also, it allows them to be installed into any taillight style.

You've got your grain of wheat bulbs and now breadboards for the tails. You're an electronics baker!

I hope i don't get many requests for this because it takes a week to build, but .... you can even tell in this pic.......... how pretty the "32" is looks totally different.

more and more this seems like going out and buying the top of the line computer only to turn around 3 seconds later to find out a newer model was just introduced.
