JohnnyWadd Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 just needs a grommet/screw that'll be flush with the lights. I doubt anything else can be done. He has those molds already made. Ya I see what you mean. I think they'lll look great still. I see the possibility of a molded lense and i am thinking a clear replacement lense becasue thats what i want for mine.Wishful thinking.

MotoCam360 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 I think these pictures will better illustrate how insignificant the mounting screws/caps are in the design, plus they're nice and symmetrical. The only way to remove them is to create mounting bosses on the backside, which is an injection molded process, not a thermo forming process. Injection molding starts off at $20k and goes up from there.....I've already got $5k into this design project and that's all I'm willing to risk for this orphaned car: http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc409/motocam360/SQ%20Tail%20Lights/SQLEDmounted2.jpg http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc409/motocam360/SQ%20Tail%20Lights/SQLEDmounted.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmyers151 Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Could be interested in a set if you end up doing them in red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoCam360 Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 I need 5 customers to commit (pay up front) to red so we can special order the material and we can do that for you!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC_99 Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Wow, those look awesome! Well done sir. I may have to get a set of those and the led replacements for stockers when you get to that. Great work, thanks so much for bringing these new products and ideas to this orphaned community. BC_99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taeisallin Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 is there no way to just replicate the 83 lenses? its easy to pull any of the old one's apart to restore them like new. but thenm it probably wont be worth the money.......keep up the goods!

leesfer Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I would imagine getting the LEDs to look good with the grooves in the 83 replicated lens would be a much more difficult task It's easier when the lends is completely flat so the LEDs behind look good in any setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsimurph Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 They look great, but for the caps on the hardware. Understanding that injection moulding is out of the question and you cannot make standoffs with your current process; could you make the "hardware caps" from the same material as the lens and the same shape as the recesses in the cover so as they snap onto the head of the screw and look flush once installed? sort of like how the little reflecters are mounted on the factory tail light housings.

I've been looking into having the 83 lenses replicated. I have run into the same issues Moto mentioned with the cost of injection molding ect. I am looking into other options for us at the moment. So, hang tight, I have 5 sets of 83 tails and 3 sets are cracked badly and need lense replaced, so one way or another, I am gonna figure out how to reproduce some. When I get it figured out and R&Ded, I will post up results ect. Sorry for the thread jack Moto. BC_99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
