Building my own flush tail lights

[Beemer533]

I could easily do that... So far they are all using generic lights... The lights I am currently using are these

kemimoto UTV Chase LED Tail Light, Chase Brake Light Bar with 5 Modes(Strobe, Courtesy, Reverse, Running, & Brake) Compatible with Polaris RZR Ranger Can Am Maverick X3-1.75'' to 2" Roll Bar https://a.co/d/5fDJrzB

So far filament wise to print, it takes a full 2.2lbs roll to print at $25 - $30. So I would gladly sell the 3d prints for $100.

Just so everyone knows, I am very transparent, I will gladly share what it cost me to make the lights when done. But remember, that will not tell how much I spend on r&d.

I do like those lights. It's too bad the courtesy light isn't available in red for the side marker.

Are you planning on a separate side marker for this one?

Yes I already have side markers in hand. Just haven't installed them. Have to measure and figure out exactly where to put them. Each side will have 2.

These are what I will be using on my personal vehicle and what I have in hand.

Truthfully, for the ability to even get the molds, uncut, with no modifications, I would gladly pay a pretty penny.

So you would just want this?

I am liking the chase light setup. Keeping an eye on this thread for sure.

So are you going to be able to incorporate the side proximity modules? If so I am in.

Basically. It would be nice to have a blank slate to put whatever light in there we wanted, but, now that I think about it, molding it for the design you have (seems like (2) 2.5-3inch lights) isn’t A bad idea either

Unfortunately there is no flatness to the blank to be able to put a light. You would literally need a 1 " wide light strip to be completely flush. That's why all my designs have the lights protruding out and not completely flush.

Some new lights I have coming to try out this week. Some even have sequential turn signals and fancy start up animations.

There's a chance I might. Might even give the files away to everyone to print their self. But last time I did that, people started selling them.

At the moment they are bolted in with the two bolts like factory, and I made the rear slip into a grove I designed. Might rework this but I actually like it.

Partner up with a 3D printing shop that has an online store and split the profits. Doesn't waste your time and should prevent a lot of people using your IP for their own profit.

A few pictures for today

The first picture , I didn't realize it but the sun had already began melting my print, so it was warping away from the body of the truck. Have to use a better printing filament like abs, asa , or poly carbonate .

Really like the look on the passenger side. Can't wait to see it come to fruition.

Couldn't help but notice the Porsche in the yard with weeds growing around it!!!?

So I think this is my favorite. Not sure if it will fit in the hole of the gladiator. I'll have to take some measurements.

Reminds me too much of a dodge dakota :D
