66 dart LED prototype working for now

thanks! I now have a better understanding of what I need to do. I may not get it quite perfect but I will get it in range to be safe. all my readings were with the lights (all 4 of em)on ,uhh and with the garage lights on. screwed that one up bad didn't I? I do know that my ratio on the front's are not good enough and I've ordered some good leds to replace those low 20Ma led's and i will have to play a bit to hold the running/parking lights down on both the front and rear lights
for the rears I'll have to add a removable daughter card on the back for different resistor packs to get to the correct ratio.

the instructions are clear enough that I had no problem understanding them. I'll try to hit it on the button to get the correct ratio

I worked in a automotive glass plant (MCGraw glass plant Detroit Michigan) and we used the CHMSL designation for the cutout that went into the black band on the rear window(backlight) area that the 3rd brake light was installed into. since I'm doing a convertible I'm not going that route,but your probably not talking about the same CHMSL that I am.

I'm going to try to set up the grid(with the garage lights off and one at a time) and do the test's to see where I'm at. may take a little while though. I called my friend the photographer and asked to borrow that meter again plus I told him what/how I did it, he's pretty booked up right now so it may take a while to get back to me.

IF/When he does come over to drop the meter off I'm gonna kick him as hard as I can. it took him 20 minutes to call me back after he dropped his cell phone because he was laughing so hard at me.(hey I didn't know and he didn't tell me)

thanks for your help and helping me understand my lighting a little better.
