    Dodge Shadow? I had the v6 back in the day with the hood bulge, red with pin stripes and a spoiler. That thing ripped!... it was my grandmother's. haha

      Yeah it was my first car, I've had it since I was 15 and have just been kind of building on it since. It's fun to take to meets because nobody knows what the hell it is.

    Just a tech tip...I've found that heating plastic with a heat gun/lighter/torch/dragon fire will help glue to want to stick to it. Trick I picked up in the diorama world. Dig the idea man!

    That wiring is way better than mine. I just tied all the loose ends into a lower gauge wire and plugged it straight into the battery. 12v = 12v haha

    There's LED strip diffuser covering that gives a neon tube look that may fit outside between the squares. It'd have to get some glue reinforcement to make sure it doesn't go anywhere though

    Now You Have Red Backup Lights Not The Best For Seeing What's Behind You When Reversing Looks Cool Though.

      True, I'm going to turn that portion into another set of brake lights. Planning on putting a new set of reverse lights under the bumper.

    What's up. I've found out to hot glue or hot snot the wires u don't want pulled out easily.
    Then cuts back from doing it 15 times to 3-5 times. In theory saving you 2-3 days. Or months if ur me.

  • @daltonwilliams1374
    @daltonwilliams1374 Před 9 měsíci +2

    Hot glue over the wires and solder tabs will help

    • @HatersGarage
      @HatersGarage  Před 9 měsíci +2

      Hot glue probably would have been a good idea. I think I though it might melt in the hot sun though, along with the hot bulbs

    • @samteks125

      Clear 2K epoxy is the way to go.

    • @HatersGarage
      @HatersGarage  Před 9 měsíci +6

      Broken piston. I was going to make a video on it but I didn't find it interesting enough.
