Custom Tail / Brake Lights

Pictures speak for themselves:

Positions 2 and 4 are retrofitted 1157 sockets:

Note the custom convex reflector at position 3 (lined with chrome tape, thank you very much, as are the sides).

Turn signals are still incandescent because my 4 way flasher mod didn't work with LED's, even with an electronic flasher module.

Backup lights are modified 2356's (about 32 total watts with both elements burning):

IMHO LED's are great to be seen, but inadequate for illumination to see things (color spectrum produced is too narrow).

That's a pretty nice set up Bill!

What does your 4-way flasher mod entail exactly, if you don't mind me asking?

Double checked total wattage of my 2357 backup bulbs while making a Midnight munchie run to Wally World: 36.8 watts with both elements burning.
