I saw this a while back (before I joined this forum).
Personally, I don't think it was a very good idea. I realize that he did this from a cost based perspective, but still. For whatever he payed for all of those little LED's, and various electronic parts, he could have just purchased a few high powered LED's, some reflectors or optics, and a few drivers. Overall, that would have been much easier, cheaper, and safer to do.
Also, with all of those little LED's, aiming them into an appropriate type of usable beam pattern without causing glare would have been difficult. I also believe that he said that after the first rain fall after installation, half of the LED's wouldn't work, because he mounted the diodes, resistors, etc, on the outside of the car.:shakehead Neat idea on paper, but poor execution, and planning.
