Some of you may know, but we bought a set of OEM Escalade tail lamps for her Burban (actually bought two sets, one is for sale).
That turned into me scoring one hell of a deal for the Escalade 3rd brake light (thanks sumo!!).
That turned into a trip to V-led.com. Picked up 4 6ohm 50w resistors, the fancy shmancy mounting plate for them, the LED reverse bulbs, and LED tag light bulbs.
Got 2 new tail light harnesses en route so we don't have to hack her factory harness to get the escalade lamps to work.
Now I am on a quest for the escalade appliques that go above the tail lights and that will be done and over with.
I'll post up pics over the next 2 weeks or so as I tear into this project.
UPDATE:
Still trying to convince her to do a light smoke on the tails and 3rd brake light to tone down all the red, but she isn't crazy about that.
UPDATE 9/24/11:
Sooo... alot has changed from the original post. We sold the Asanti's, got 24" 3pc Intros, Wilwood discs on all four corners, Escalade Rear tails, third brake light, 09+LTZ Moldings, Escalade roof rack, Headrest DVD/TVs, 09+ Escalade mirrors, 4300k HIDs in the lowers and fogs, and replaced all the exterior lighting with LEDs from V-LEDS.com. Been an expensive 4 months, but well worth the funds spent!
If you guys have facebook, friend ELITE ROADS in Fort Lauderdale, FL, there are supposedly some high resolution shots of the Burban there.
Final pics (more to come once the weather clears up):
Rear Wilwood 4piston 14.25" brakes..
