thats nifty but wouldent the light comming from the headlamp drownd out the light from the ring?

can you see them during the day time? if so do you drive with the lights up in the day time?

sorry if this sounds like im persecuteing you. just asking the obvious.

with the head lights on u can still see a little blue on the bottom and i cant drive around with my lights up in the day time cus ive only made one sofar...

i didnt make em to be used practicly , i just had the earge to make em.. so i did.

my next plan is to make a long od at the back of the car that lights up red for a fancy stop light..


Edit : the lights in em at ment to be white lights but come up with a blue tinge. it wasnt ment to be blue.
