Thanks, so the brown is the marker lights, left turn/brake is yellow, right turn/brake is green.

Simple enough. I am going to remove the trailer harness completely since I wont use it anyways and just splice/solder and heat shrink wire onto the ends, cap the other wires off and then run the wires up into the cab. Thanks again!

Nothing picture worthy so I will add one I put in what have you gotten done, yesterday. (in that picture is the new headlight bulbs and blinker bulbs (switch backs)

Today I spent over an hour desoldering 120 LEDs so I can finally get moving on the second and final tail light. After that, I am going to take a day break to let my eyes recover.

My eyes were buggin. Ended up de-soldering 15 more LEDs (white ones) for the reverse lights and getting that board layed out.

I got the drawing layed out for the 2 boards for the tail lights to get them ready to be cut. Will cut them out tomorrow and start laying out LEDs after I paint them black.
I want to get these damn things done and in!

Another update, sorry no pictures again (nothing picture worthy)
I finished up 2 of the 3 remaining boards today. Cut open the OEM tail light board to run my own wires through it and into the housing.
I just have to finish up the one board, mount them and seal the housing back up. Then its running wires on the truck. and its done.. Finally.
I am getting sick of doing this. Its my own fault for wanting to salvage 240 LEDs

Might even be before that. I plan on getting the wiring on the truck side figured out tomorrow and having all that ready. Then finishing up the tail light which is about 70% done. Makin moves to blind people WOO

Not the best quality. But its tough to get a photo of 240 lumileds even if they are only at 8v.
