I used these: http://www.oznium.com/thin-waterproof-ribbon

The ones you posted may work, but they don't look waterproof. If you seal off the FTP's completely though that won't be a problem. Oznium Sells something just like what you posted but a couple bucks cheaper: http://www.oznium.com/led-strip-flat-head

Goodies!

I borrowed a pair of spacers for a quick test fit. I still need to measure and check clearances though before I order some spacers. But here are some pics.







As you can see the front sticks out a tad.


Convertible Trunk Single Strut Conversion:





Adapter:


I plan on having a few things anodized black in the future, the adapter is one of them.








Passenger side LED Mirror test. Not actually hooked up to the car battery though, just a pair of dieing 9v batteries putting out about 10v.








I am actually very surprised at how well these have turned out. They are extremely visible when on. The camera just doesn't do it justice. I sear if you don't see my signals when I use them at night you are just ******* blind.

It is on the ground in those pics. Theres just no weight in the engine bay yet.




Kaaz diff installed. Transmission is also back in the car. Though I think I may be pulling trans back out to go a different route.


I need some driveshaftshop axles!

At this point I am seriously contemplating putting the brakes on the 13bt and selling off all my 13bt parts to go in a new direction. I'm also probably gonna sell my FD roller. I wanted to build a 3 rotor FD, but I think I will do that a few years down the road instead. This car will be more than enough to hold me over.

yeah this one obviously way more unique than the average widebody kits you find out there, you especially usually don't see many on the verts that look good.

I want to make sweet love to your paint job. It makes my eyes hurt thinking about seeing that thing sparkle in the sun.

Entire build is beautiful, keep her goin. If this looks like this, I can't wait to see that FD you want to build.

Unfortunately I think your gonna have to wait a a few years until you see my FD project. I'm hopefully selling my 20b this weekend and will be listing my FD roller for sale in the next few days afterward. I'm kinda torn about doing it. The Roller is pretty low mileage ~60k 94 touring and I may not be able to find one with mileage that low in a few years... But I won't be able to get to it for a while and it may be best to let it go to someone else.

Cleared some room... Last week we were allowed 1000 PMs and I was comfortably under that limit. Now with no warning the limit is dropped to 500 and I was over that and I didn't notice until you posted.... I was expecting a PM too... How awesome.

Anyway... PM away.
