I did this last year and had quite a few people turn out. This year, I'll have my new car with (hopefully) the underbody LED lit installed, as well as the cabin lighting replaced. I learned some things from my last car, and the wiring and switch panel should be a bit more elegant than last year.

Anyone interested in coming out for a quickie hour-long clinic like last year? If so, what would you like to discuss that isn't already covered by the stuff I'll have installed?

Let me know!

Here are some pics of Nano (RIP) at the height of her "Bluemination" if you wonder what kind of stuff we'd be discussing:

 

Totally.

Will you do it at Minis in the Alps 2008, also?

 

Alps? Like, Switzerland? I will if someone will ship my car for me and sponsor my plane ticket and room & board.

 

I was not able to make it to the clinic last time so YES, I would love to see this in person, even if it is not on HO Nano.

 

Cooper... maybe we can swap lighting services for some of your tasty CF goods. :: Makes phone shape with fingers and mouths "call me" with a wink ::::

 

What? You're suppose to drive. Just take the long way 'round....

 

Ah, if only I had 115 days to do nothing but drive my MINI to Switzerland...

 

Ah, nobody can add value to a thread like my friend abuzavi...

Well, maybe I can. But nobody else.

I'd probably be in for Glowin' on the Dragon II...

 

What?

I would soooo be down with a lighting mod clinic -- it's probably the one little thing I'd still like to add to the girl.

However..... there's that whole Atlantic thing to contend with. A good write up, some photos, and maybe I am get inspired and brave.

I did at least schedule a pulley party / garage day for JAN. Maybe I'll tinker some then.

 

I would love to do this.. I have started to do the blue inside.. but definitely like the blue glow packs on the underneath!

I would be happy to let my car lol be the guinea pig car!!!!!

 

Hehehe... I don't think we'd have time to do an install clinic on-site, but maybe. If you need help with the installation though let me know and maybe we can work something out...

 

I would like to know how to make my MINI look like the inside of the one shown below.



Just kidding of course...

 

I had a friend in Highschool that had the smoke effect figured out for his car.

 

wow that is hot !!!! I was thinking of doing something like that to my mini

 

I'll volunteer my car for pictures , We can do the install and take pictures will it's done ... I've got like 200 leds ,plus a couple undercar kits , cold cathodes and strobes , so there should be plenty of variety

 

what does a job like that cost?

 

Is there anyone that is really good with strobes?

 

I have the blue strobe lights inside.. mounted up under the steering wheel and the glovebox.. but i would love to put the glow packs on for the outside.. that would be awesome

 

You know....I have been toying with the idea of doing some changes in Cecilia, and am 1)wanting to pick your brain so I can do it...and 2) since I ONLY get to see you at MOTD, would of course be wondering if I could get all the crap and see *impish and innocent smile* if you could possibly help me change some stuff! I would of course have EVERYTHING you would need to help me and I will be there for the entire week and everything. I don't want to go as extreme as Nano was, but of course I LOVED it, but I would like to do some changes...

 

you could .....
prepare a parts list and where to get the parts and a ball park on cost then give tips and tricks on how to do it so those of us who want to do it but are unsure of the who ,what , where can get it sorted out..

 

This may not be what you mean by Lighting Clinic but I could use some help installing some Altezza Clear Tail lights on my 07 Cabrio.
The catch is that they are not made for MINI's beyond 05 because of the missing reverse light, but my idea is to add a strobe for the reverse light.

 

yeah one of those.. bring your lights.. bring your stuff.. and ill be there to lean over your shoulder and either give you a or a face

 

I'm all about "attempting" to do some mods on Cecilia myself, but I would need that or looking over my shoulder to help! And maybe a little direction too!

 

If you need help or want me to install them, let me know. I had to add a reverse light to mine since there are no decent aftermarket lights for a 2005. It's an easy job, just make sure you have the parts ie. the back up light and tail lights. I have all the parts for the wiring.

 

I'd love to make a Lighting Clinic if it doesn't conflict with any of my road trips.
