Great MOD for adding front TURN and DAY RUNNING lights - 3D

Post by DiegoC »

Hello from Argentina my friends !!!
Today I will share with you my 3D printing work for adding DRL and Turn lights.

I started with these Acco covers only
I will use the clear lens as DRL and will modify the blackout lens for turning signal

Then you will need some dotted or triangle/piramid pattern acrylic

At this point you will need the 3D part that I designed with Fusion 360

Now you will need some low profile lights
I used a 6 white-led board for DRL and an amber led light for the turn signal

Now the new screws
I needed shorter screws than the originals.... and I just used 2 long screws for holding

Note that you will need to make some holes in the 3D part to bring the cables out.
I did not add the holes in the Fusion 3D design so that you can make them depending on the led lights/cables you use

This is my jeep:

This is where I will place the lights:

I you are interested in this mod and want the 3D part I will be more than happy to share with you the .stl file
I only will ask $5 to support my work and continue to invest time in new 3D parts for our jeeps ;-)
Thanks for watching !!!
