), the downside to heveing the lights on my car is if cops are useing lidar(lezer radar) the leds give it more acuracy

, the plus side is that i can make them pulse useing a varable resistor and a 555timer circut and make them work like a green light device.

Ever notice that there are little black sensors with little hoods ontop of the lights at intercections?, well those are Ir recivers that catch pulses from firetrucks that change the lights green when one comes through the intersection, Its a $50 fine if your cought with a device that messes with the trafic light...

kleicl, the problem with the progress is that i need to wait a day or so fot the epoxy to fully harden, if you like i can put up shots of my antenna mod?

Lucky... its a federal crime and 10,000 fine in the US... (yeah a dirty mirt would make me uuber happy to install in my car)... I could deal with a possible 50 dollar fee... but not 10k =(

With the IR I just meant that a lot of cameras are able to see IR. (even though the human eye can not). Just be careful at intersections with Caltran cameras (if those are even in CA).
