OK now we are getting somewhere, so can I just solder then on the copper points, also I know theres 8 sockets, but I think I might need more to give it a pure, pure white background right?

I'll repeat what has been mentioned in the thread many times, it is all in the technique. You can use the copper points, the sockets, whatever. It's personal choice. In positioning, it all technique. There is no right or wrong, only his way and her way. Some spot, some work great. I never built any two the same. It takes hours. Just have fun with it. USe as many as you want to or can.

Tell me if this can work or not, Im going to solder these leds I got from Lextech right into the bulb housing and make sure the LED is deep in the housing and put them in and replace them with the plug and play LEDS. Do you think it will look better? Do you think I need more LEDS

which cluster? I have 5 for my SC... one for each day of the week, all different colors. I drive the toys on the weekend. 16 in one, 32 in another, 64 in yet another. There's no set way, but I never go below 32 for myself.

There is more room in the ES cluster. The two clusters are totally different (ES and SC). One good thing is that it is easier to spread light in an ES cluster.

Hey my LEDS came in and I have a ques.When I solder these 64 LEDS on the cluster is it better to face the LEDS in different directions to not get any spotting or do they all have to be facing up. Is it possible to solder the LEDS within the cluster and not right in the socket wholes?

Hey OLT I just finished installing 64 purewhite LEDS and after 9hours Im finally finished. Hers a pic of the cluster, now I tried to put the contrast on the camera down as much as I could.

No, not at all. very good for a first time run, but remember what the camera can see all the time is what you can see during the daytime. When there is less inside light it glares on your eyes and covers up some imperfections (not all of them) However in the daytime you can really see spotting worse, you'll notice when you get a chance to look, so keep working on it.
It takes seemingly forever to get them right until you get it down pat. Can you imagine doing this 3 or more times a day 6 days a week and having to align all of the hundreds of led's? It's all in the way you do it, like i say... it's just lot's and lot's of practice and technique.
