- Building out an illumaesthic kit for the 2000s Acura integra coupe tail lights.
we build out the custom boards and install the boards into the tail light housings.

Now people understand why LED panel taillights are expensive to buy built 👍🏽
Hey Zac I’ve been dealing w a lot of permaseal Honda lights, I haven’t had the luxury of a oven, my trick so far is just a heat gun and panel spreader like you said. Pocket screw drivers, and don’t be afraid to mess w the plastic a bit csuse I’ve been able to bend them back with heat
Just going super slow and Starting in high stress areas like you’ve explained in past videos
Wow that is amazing i hope i can do something similar for my db8 integra
These are going to be so nice! I would love to see how they turned out in the car. Did you end up addressing the light reflection possible issues by adding additional shrouding between the light sources? I'm quite sure I am not the only one that would LOVE to buy a set of these as my skillset and mainly lack of time due to travel working makes this impossible for me to do myself. Great quality of work, great editing on the video and great content man! Keep it up and let us know if these ever become an orderable set! I sent a subscribe your way and shared this to my car people interested in similar for their cars.
Have you considered heating the light, Remove a little, shim it open, re heat, repeat. Maybe use a floss like string/wire to to slide under the cover from one side to the other after getting it started to cut the seal
Nice content bro, love it ❤❤ from indo
Hell ya bro another banger video!
Thank you!!
What strips do you use ?
good work but you have some mistakes I think
you didn't make a shroud between the barking and reverse light so the light will come through the reverse section
also the parking light comes through the LED bulbs of the break lights if I made that I'll put shroud in the back of them
keep posting the goods bro 🫶🏻
Good call! Thank you!!
How do you know what kind of resistor you need for the lights?
Nice one, like your work. Any chance you taking orders to make custom lights?
How much would it be for me to send you a set of oem tail lights + aftermarket tail lights for a lens swap from the aftermarkets to the oems?
Can you do like one that looks like a endless hallway for the 99 integra also what's your website I want to order for my integra
Are those 5mm or 3mm leds?
where can I get that kind of motherboard? did you have to program any chip o anything else additionally? I want to do something like that to my car (I live in Chile) but I cant get to the right tutorial 🥺
En la descripcion no escribiste como se llama el secuencial 😢😢 como la puedo comprar en amazon?? La tarjeta secuencial 😊
Hello
Im wondering how did you make that panel which you put the Leds on?
where can i buy this sequential module?
Hello, do you have any information about sequential module? Is build by you? Could you share some information? Thank you and nice job!
It looks like your parking light strip LEDs are bleeding light through your brake light and turn signal LEDs.
Love your vid zac!!! I've done a few retrofits an now thinking about tail lights an your video is inspiring me lol. Im want to do my civic hstch but am not wondering how does the wiring to the car work from the taillights? Im assuming splicing/t-taps?
Thanks! if your doing just a basic illumaesthic kit you can just wire the boards up directly to the small tail light harness (all tail lights are going to have their own little harness on the back of them)
if you wanting to go with a full blow show mode color shifting style you will need to run wires from the trunk lights to the body lights (which sucks!!)
Can make a Nissan B12 cool tail lights
Hello friend, how to have a module like these?
Can u make custom tail lights for a 1983 Camaro
How Can I Contact Your Shop For Services On Foxbody Tails?
I Have The Rendering & All.
Thanks!
if you use a dremel to put a relief cut on the end of a throwaway flathead screw driver it will be less tedious to lay down all the cut led ends.
smart! ill have to try that!
Where can i find those sequential moduels for the leds
Corsomotion module, such a good sequential module!
👍
Where can i find the diffuser panel to work on doing my own set? It seems like everyone is so booked out or just simpky doesn't answer or is not interested in doing what im looking to have done.
Yeah unfortunately most builders are going to be several months to years behind
But you can get the boards from Illumaesthetic
@zaccook I'll check again but I couldn't find them on the website when I looked. But thank you for the reply. Greatly appreciate it.
Good day or night I work on semi truck lights I install after market lights but would like to do my own thing would like to learn more thanks
awesome! hope the videos help!
I don't see where you are using a dimming module, what voltage did you calculate the resistor off of?
I didn't have to use a dimmer on this one but the sequential corsomotion module can do the dimming as well.
@@zaccook Ok so I am trying to build some 1 color tail lights for a 71 Charger, I bought a dimmer module and a Corsomotion module (bc I was recommended to do so). My main issue is the voltage to use to calculate which resistor, 12V or 14.7V. The other issue is how to wire the dimmer module to the Coromotion module because the dimmer has 1 outlet for the "night'brake" but the corsomotion asks for a night (parking) and another for the brakes.
So I’ve been following for a minute and I was wondering if you could make me some custom tail lights
Hello Zac, please let me know, how many input volts are you using to calculate the resistors??? Thanks a lot, hugs from México...
hey! didn't really have to calculate them because illumaesthic has a cheat sheet, but the voltage is just vehicle voltage so 11v-14v
@@zaccook thanks a lot for your help...
Should of curved the ends downwards.closer to oem.
Nah
What's that white blur sheet is called?
It’s a custom led kit

Sweet! Our sales guy works on Wednesdays! We will get back to you then
@@zaccookthanks so much buddy
pretty ugly, sorry they don't even remotely match the design of the tail lights, the shape, size or anything about the Integra rear end
