Here are the photos. The 1" diameter LEDs set up for 12 volts. http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2111386740103315458EYeStp 1949 Studebaker light trimmed to fit AD fender With LEDs. http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2290152510103315458guWUtt The problem http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2923076470103315458zvLaom There is going to be a rubber gasket that will give me some room. The question is there any reason that I can't trim the tops of the LEDs some. It looks like there is about 3/16' before you get to the anode and cathode. The lights were less than $5 each. Here is what they look like on the truck. http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2805798000103315458MkPWWG Thanks

It is a lot better than the price of led tail lights. They have some neat stuff for cheap.

Neil, do you think you can post a good clean shot straight on of the front and back of that LED board? I'd like to see how they have the circuit laied out for the 12v configuration.
Thanks

Sorry about the photo my camera has a 300 mm lens and no macro. If you can't see what you want I'll shoot it at work with a macro lens. There is no connection between the right side of the diode and the neg. wire hole just above it. I think I marked everything else. Read my caption on the photo for more info. http://rides.webshots.com/photo/2461796360103315458TSpdLa

Thanks Neil, I think I can see how they ran the ckt. I believe all you would have to do to change them to 6v would be change the resistors, simple enough.
