All,

I have a suggestion for a nice new product.

A "VTEC" LED sign, either to hang (like an emblem) or imbed into the bumper - that lights up whenever VTEC kicks in.

All the cars can see you hitting VTEC as you wave bye!

I have some ideas, such as PCB board with small surface mounted LED's soldered on that spells out VTEC - or "C'Ya" or some other nice term. Question is making the covers...

Anyway, if someone is bored and would like to start on a nice little project... contact me.

Thanks,

WoofWoof

No offense, but that sounds kinda tasteless to me.

To each his own, moving out of UTH to Electronics.

Maybe it would help if there was neon lights under the car, gold emblems and rims.

i think if you had neon light, gold emblems and rims then it's BADA$$ to add a vtec light!!

but it seems like a simple enough project...pick up a circuit book from radio shack. they'll tell you how to wire up an LED to light when a trigger is fired.

It'll look good right next to the Type-R sticker and racing stripes.

hmm...

maybe it's not a good idea for a S2000... Btw, I had gold emblems on my Integra (some dudes ripped it) - forced options from dealer

Good to have some feedback on things, keeps things in perspective.

Thanks for the inputs buds...

Kinda hard to leave the souped up Integra world behind - if you know what I mean ...

WoofWoof!
