Shelbyville Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 While still not a fan of the new rear end on the mustang, I do have to admit the tail lights on the 13s look pretty sharp! Has anyone come out with something similar for our cars? Something else I would like to change - is it possible to slow down the flash for the turn signals? With sequentials you are now trying to get three flashes in the same amount of time that you had for one and it just doesn't look right. I realize its not like the old days where you could just swap out the flasher or add some resistance in the line but surely there's a way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelbyville Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 i put a set of these on my wife's GT: http://www.americanm...ights-0509.html Interesting but not really what I'm looking for. Any ideas on slowing the flash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onirb Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 I just installed the Raxion set last week. It aso has the Scott Drake sequential set . [sharedmedia=videos:videos:26] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelbyville Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 What about adapting the 13s to our cars? Besides the obvious bodywork issues, what other problems might there be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlesnake Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Can't help with adapting the 2013 lights to older models but some sequential flasher harnesses, like the one I bought from Shelby are adjustable and you can adjust the flash by following their instructions. Perhaps look at your rear wire harness and see if the flash is adjustable in the set you currently have. The adjuster will be near the back of the tail lamps so you must take off the rear trunk cover to see it. Hope that helps a bit.. If you see small plastic housings with what I call dip switches sticking out you may well have adjustable flashers. Let me know if you want me to enter the sequence here for adjustable flash sequence i.e.. how to make the flash slower or faster.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kryptonite Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 How about these??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank bullitt Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Nice! How did the install go for you? Any tips or suggestions other than what they post on line? How is the quality? I'm thinking about wrapping a set in carbon fiber. Talking to Cervini they say the lights seperate from the housing. Do you see an easy way to do that?

kryptonite Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Took me about 3 hours, including removing to stock lights. Double sided tape, so be careful in lining everything up, cause once it sticks, its on there. Instructions call for, believe it or not, for quarters to use as spacers to line everything up. The instructions were spot on for me. I took my time. Very bright and the sequentials are awesome! I would recommend having a second pair of hands. You will have to remove the faux cap and reinstall it on the center piece. Due to the depth of the center section, you will no longer be able to use your key for the trunk lock.

Shelbyville Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I considered those but I like having some separation between the lights and the stripes. Also not sure how the black background will look with black stripes. I do like how they accentuate the "width" of the car rather than the "height". Who makes the lights for the 13s? Do they do anything in the aftermarket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked Shelby Perf. Parts - they don't list any programmable sequentials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
