Yes! Watching the video, I wasn't a big fan of the lights just phasing in and out. But the scanning left and right looks amazing and not something I'd ever really considered for these cars! Not for my car, as I went a totally different direction, but otherwise I'd want to copy this. I'm a big Knight Rider mark...

Thanks, I like that I can do so many things with it. I always saw the face of my car as... well a face... so i thought the breathing would look good. Especially when I rev the engine.

The one down side is the knights crest in the way. I'd look at a mode that worked with something in the center.

Neat add-on!

The modes coming from the middle look good. Like the lights are coming from the knights crest. The lights you are seeing are actually a reflection. It worked well being the only place the bar would mount.

Hahaha thanks, I started this when I first got the car and it hasn't all gone the direction I wanted at first but I'v learned a lot and done some things to the car I really like. Iv fallen in love with this car and I hope one day down the road I can look back at this thread and watch the progress of my monte from when I bought her to where she ends up. (And you ran kidding about that money thing hahaha) btw, I have always loved your hood, haven't seen you around really since I'v been here though. Good to finally see you.

I make sporatic appearances and try to help when I can. I mostly stick to the tech threads or how to's and try to answer questions for folks. Used to be active years ago, time's changed....people change.
