Heikki, How the heck are you my lad ;) Have a look at http://www.camec.com.au/ In their products section under 12volt. They have a heap of lighting available. Also have a look in Building materials, section 45 and look for the Truline Aluminium Mould and Truline Rubber infil. That is what I have used on number 2.

Cheers
Paul :thumbsup:

Heikki, welcome back. Do your porch lights have to be EU approved? :lol:

I've had my eye on some LED's from Bass Pro Shops.

http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/store ... rchResults

Go to their website and do a search for "Hella LED" or "LED light" for more results.

Maybe a colored flourecent tubing under the door area. I have orange porch lights on mine & have not used them yet. If I was to do it over , I would not use them. I am still looking into the colored flourecent accent lights under the door area.

I didn't use fluorescent lights but kind of the same idea. I used a 25 LED strip. This is not a very good picture but here it is.

Check out motorcycle lights

Postby Guy » Tue May 01, 2007 12:07 pm

Dear Heikki,

Try to check out some motorcycle lights, especially side marker lights.


The custom chopper world is full of some great lighting shapes, much more so than the automobile or RV world..
Regards,

Guy
