Re: dual filament tail/brake light instal - Mk1 (Indiana Red)

Good stuff Randy! I may have to copy you on that if you don't mind....

James,
There shouldn't (hasn't for over a year now) be any problems with melting the inside of the lenses since the bulb wattage is same as stock.
I just doubled the # of bulbs being lit up for both brake and driving.
If you increase the wattage (which I considered) you run this risk along with other problems such as the wires ability to deliver the extra wattage needed for the bulbs.
This seemed like the safest way to increase visibility.

Indiana Red,
No problem I have many others mods that I will post in the future.
Not having a job yet gives me lots o' time to go back thru some of my previous mods and pic's. Stay tuned
Randy

Paul,
Thanks, copy away.
This is one thing I used to love about car shows (before the internet).
I never went to look at people's pretty paint.
First thing I did was look at all the mod's (before all the aftermarket tuners got involved) that people came up with....I looked forward to the inginuety of other enthusiasts.
Why buy something that doesn't quite work the way you want it when you can make it yourself exactly to your specs for much less.
Randy
