No man!Originally posted by Serpentkillers View Post Service center guys are saying it would take upto a month. So waiting! Anyways 60/55W bulb is supported on my bike. So, not so big prob. After getting the coil, hopeful of going upto 100/90W.
@shreeni
I gave a pattern in the prev post. Modify it as per your liking!Leave a comment:

hii guys
its a god job,,get some more ideas to envent new designs and enginering,,,.Leave a comment:

i asked for patternOriginally posted by abhijeet080808 View Post
And you drill using a drill, duh! I have an electric drill at home so not a problem for me. Electricians usually have them.

If you decide to use a circuit board then good. A circuit board will be like a blank canvas - plonk the LEDs where you see fit! Just cut the board in proper shape such that it can be sandwiched between the reflector and the lens.Originally posted by Shreeni0403 View PostOMG those are lovely designs, i am loving it
Thank you very for the idea, i ll try out.
Actually i had thought not to drill the reflector so i had an idea of putting the circuit board like this...
So any idea u can give me on design, don't think i am greedy
Also need some help to drill, how to drill the reflector if i think of doing so..!!

You will need to adjust a few LEDs due to the 2 mounting screws behind. I am not too good with Photoshop, but I think you get the design. Let me know if you like it. Uni tail lamp has much more area to plonk LEDs compared to my itsy-bitsy tail lamp!

100% its on DC
Also, using a circuit board means that you can not use a clear lens cover as the circuit board placed between the reflector and the lens will be visible from outside. So need to use older red lens.
Unicorn comes with clear lens only.!!
But in case of drilling holes in the reflector and using LEDs, you can use clear lens. Also this will be more brighter.
If drilling goes wrong then entire reflector will go kaput..!!!
Also see the rear view of reflector, drilling might also affect the bolt which holds the reflector with chasis..Here it is... Removed it today to start offOriginally posted by abhijeet080808 View Post

Hey can you upload a close up pic of your tail lamp so that I can suggest a pattern for the LEDs? Not able to find one on the net!Leave a comment:

Have a couple of questions
As u know my headlights are running on DC i don't think the bridge rectifier or the capacitor is needed. Correct me please.
This is how Unicorn's reflector looks, kindly help me or suggest me how can i cut the circuit board.
I had put the LED's in this fashion earlier with which i am not very happy
The LED's i have used is probably 5mm ones. I am not very sure.
I suggest you place the LEDs on a circuit board like me. If you leave them hanging like that, it will not look good and may move out of position due to jerks and vibrations.
Else you may drill holes on the reflector and push the LEDs from behind into the holes, this way wires will be behind the reflectors and hence not visible. Easier than creating a circuit board. But glue everything down properly.
Also, using a circuit board means that you can not use a clear lens cover as the circuit board placed between the reflector and the lens will be visible from outside. So need to use older red lens.
But in case of drilling holes in the reflector and using LEDs, you can use clear lens. Also this will be more brighter.
In either case solder all the components properly.
I will upload a pattern for LEDs shortly...Leave a comment:

There are so many shops in Ritchie Street. I do not remember any particular shop. Go there and ask. You will surely find one.Originally posted by Thunder View Post
They are mostly cheap Chinese made. So, quality is doubtful. Also, I guess they will cost more than the cost of doing this DIY.Leave a comment:
