  • Mobius 1967 F-100 Service Truck How I did the lights.
    First, RUclips wouldn’t let me post the code in the description, so I posted it in the community section of my RUclips page. Here is a link to it.
    / @grandpamarkshobbies
    If you follow the video and copy and past this where it needs to go it will work. I tested it twice.
    It did take some time to get the wires all run, but in the end it was worth it.

    Thanks, Mark. Your tutorial videos are my favorites. As a guy who hasn't written any code for 30 years, you _almost_ make me itch to get back to it! Almost. 🙂

    That's great Mark, fantastic. Gotta love the Dome lights. They really look like they're really spinning around!! I like the 'double' flashing of each side of your 'wig wags' too. To hide the wires in the cabin I suppose I could thread them through a piece of hollow 'round' stock or 'half' round, but that's no biggie. Thankyou Mark. Catch ya next time, and you take care buddy. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

      Well, I'm glad you asked. . . I have tried it on our work van's headlights and it did nothing. LOL There is a product out there that you can get that is a 3 part process to do them. I'll let you know after this weekend if it works. I'm going to use it on the wife's car. To do those LEDs is really a lot easier than it seems. Just think about where you are going to run the wires and where the power is going to come from before you start anything.

  • @eibenjohn1299

    • @grandpamarkshobbies
      @grandpamarkshobbies  Месяц назад

      Thank you. I was going to do that, but the way the kit is I had to go under the fender so it was better to run them that way. I'm glad I could help. I also have a video on how I just do headlights without all the computer stuff. It uses a cr2032 batt.

    I don't see many builders put lights in there models , so this is pretty interesting to me! I'm working on a 57 Bel Air and I'm putting head and tail lights in it. First time doing that with a kit. I'll be watching how you do this truck for tips for my build.
