BrownBoy Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Sorry, we don't have any plans for the Legacy, we'll try to work it in. We will let you know if that happens in the future. However, if you can find 6 or more people that are interested, we can arrange a group buy. It will be $310 each pair if you guys send us your taillights. Thanks, Terry @ LM Retrofit There ya go guys...there's the email reply. So who wants to do this? We'd have to provide our own tail lights...I really cant afford to give up my tail lights, and would have to find another set, which would be getting really really expensive...I might still go fwd. if I can find some cheap tail lights...

gfxdave99 Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Well if we split the cost of a new oem pair to send in, 1st person gets their leds sends theirs in etc...

SuperhawkLGT Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Think Opie has a spare set, and the guy that bought his extra JDMers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownBoy Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I'm up for something like this..a co-operative effort would be awesome. I'm assuming all of us would have to prepay or something though. If I get some interest in this method, I'll go ahead and contact him and let him know that we would be interested, and shoot this idea to him also. Just throw in your comments...those couldn't hurt.

Jerboa113 Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 word, nice drawing, someones good at sketching, and the LEDs look great, just like I was anticipating.

BrownBoy Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I'm just waiting for the guy to finish up the TSX project. He should be contacting me after that, and I'll try to get things rolling from then on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobE Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I would be interested if it were cheaper. I mean there has to be tons of people out there that can do this (probably for cheaper) http://newenglandsubarus.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmiller5 Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Just to let you guys know, I have done retrofits for a few different models and just the other day bought a single taillight for the legacy off of ebay for a good price. So I am going to experiment around and decide if this is a good candidate for a retrofit. Just so you can see my designs, here are a few others I have done: 97-01 BB6 Honda Prelude DAY http://www.hidplanet.com/dmiller/10-29-05%20Pics/2.jpg NIGHT http://www.hidplanet.com/dmiller/Night1.jpg Infiniti I30 3rd Brake Light DAY http://www.hidplanet.com/dmiller/I30%20Brakelight/Final_1.jpg NIGHT http://www.hidplanet.com/dmiller/I30%20Brakelight/Final_9.jpg I'm also working on a Mazda MX-6 taillight right now which is still in the design phase.

sathiele Posted March 10, 2006 Author Share Posted March 10, 2006 nice work! hope things work out for the legacy tail light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerboa113 Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 indeed, I'm much anticipating this. btw how much would it cost to do something simple like that 3rd brake light you did there? the less bulbs I have to replace the better.. I can't stand it when I'm going down the road and see 3/4 of the people who have incandescent 3rd brake lights are burnt out, and I dont want that to be me lol. if it were cheap enough I might consider that also, so long as all of this requires no wire cutting.. does it? cos.. I dont like chopping factory harnesses. "The penalty good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men." - Plato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The B4 Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 The LED tails on the Accord look very nice and bright. I'm very partial to the LED tails on the Caddy's as it is is very distinctive. the 2006 Nissan Murano also has LED tails and makes the rearend seem more modern and aggressive.

dmiller5 Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Thanks guys. Well I build every single component from scratch so the design can really be modified to the shape of the taillight and the look of the rear end. Oh and for the 3rd brake light I believe that I charge $100 total. I have some concerns about the Legacy taillight, but since I got it for so cheap I decided it was worth a try. Hopefully I can solve some problems that I think I have spotted with it and I can produce excellent and stock-looking results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobE Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Sounds sweet. Can't wait to see how it turns out. I like that tails on the 2003 Infiniti G35. http://newenglandsubarus.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrownBoy Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Hey man, good job w/ the LED tails. Since you are a member here now, and you are contributing, I think we should get behind you to make us some LED tails. I think the vendor that I contacted may have just missed out.

dmiller5 Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Yea, I have seen a lot of people interested in it. I know that a lot of people bought the legacy because it was more "refined" than an impreza. Nice looking LED tails, I think, can really add to this element and I am trying to achieve this.

BrownBoy Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 can u make something like what's shown on post #51? +1 No circles inside circles or anything. Really simple like the drawing I did. I think that would look the best, and fit the personality of our cars the best. Keep us updated on this, and hopefully we can get something going here.
