Fixed Master Window Switch: FR window up and down issue and LEDs on master switch for FR window wouldn't light up. Cleaned all the contacts and adjusted some of the solder.

Because I know DOOM's car and how he shows his car I made sure the install was as stealth as possible, making sure everything was as hidden as possible including black zip ties. lol
I was very pleased with the install for him and probably as excited as he was to have them done as I was to do this for him.
Hope you enjoy the new lights DOOM and I look forward to completing the rest of the LED switch over.

That's what happens when you let midgets play around in your car, DOOM!:P
ctrlraven....did you do your S55 yourself or have it done by someone else?

They were originally ImpalaSlayers tail lights that he did and we swapped the rear lights years ago. They are a must for SB cars.

Pic didn't come over,
What size are those map light bulbs?
Ps. should have put a DUW warning. My internet connection is acting up, so i know anyone still using dial up is having a fit with this thread.

Rear map lights are 42mm 211 festoon bulbs.

HID's or nothing else. Regular bulbs just don't cut it anymore.

Very clean install. What brand lights did you use? Vleds.com

Nice Chris!:bows:
Where to begin.
Birdmans work is top notch! :coolman:
He was so meticulous with my install. Everything under the hood is hidden. The car looks like it was never touched. No wires or anything showing. Everything is hidden.
The 5k lights are PURE WHITE light and look great!
Birdman had my car knocked out in no time! :up:
During the entire install Birdman kept sending me pics of the progress showing me everything he was doing.
He also knew I wanted my lights done before Louisville and made it his priority to get them done before I hit the road.
Window switches work perfect too!
Birdman is the type of guy that treats your car like its his own.
During the whole process from beginning to the time I picked my car up. Every question I had every PM and text I sent was answered! :bows:
I am thoroughly impressed!
Birdman thank you thank you thank you! :beer:

Thank you Jake! I treat other's vehicles a lot better than I treat my own, my HIDs are just thrown in, peek your head in the engine and you see all the wires. With your car you actually have to look to see them.

Foglights look great during day time and with the silverstar corner bulbs the car will catch someone's eye if they are looking in the general direction.
