New mod? heh Glow skull!

so I stole this image from some site

(it's reversed and what not for printing)

then I used these back lights, an inverted and a resister to make some cool back lite things. (which run on 12 volts)



then with some fancy wiring, silicon, alittle door ripping, and a few hours I installed 1 on each rear side window of my truck

should be about half as bright as an LED, or something like that. I made one before and you could see it clearly from 100 feet

I tried to take a couple night shots of it

it's pretty bright, and you can see it clearly from some good distance... however, my digi cam sucks at night. So all I get is darkness

you can see from the 2nd pic what it looks like, it luminates blue.

That is really cool! What did you print them on to make them do that?

images were printed inverted on transparency paper.

I used a "flat back light" to luminate through the clear parts of the image

turned out very nice, just wish my digital camera was alittle better for taking night pictures

I get them from a company I work for. They get them from another company who, you guessed it, gets them from another company :o

I don't have a clue where they actually come from, although, I am in the process of trying to find out
