NA Miata MX-5 Sequential LED Turn Signals

thingiverse

DISCLAIMER: I'm still perfecting this design and there are some things that need some more tweaking. With that, I am open to any suggestions and constructive criticism. And if you have any questions please ask. Enjoy!! I wanted cool LED sequential turn signals but didn't want to pay $200+ for a set. I also wanted to use my turn signals as intakes since I have the air filter behind the headlight. I found these Sequential LED strips on eBay that you can cut to the length you want. My design is basically just a housing and mounting solution for those LED strips. Also would like to note this is probably not legal in most places, The running light is white and the turn signal is amber that turns on sequentially.

The turn signals now being LED will make the flasher relay hyperblink. To fix this you can replace a resistor on the relay. I linked the 1M resistors I used below. Here is a write up on how to do it: https://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?t=335534 Hardware: 4x Socket Head M4x12mm 4x M4 Washers 4x M4 Nuts (I used Nylon Lock Nuts so they don't loosen accidentally) 2x Socket Head M5x16mm 2x Fender Washers (Needs to be bigger than a normal washer since the mounting hole is large and to spread out the load. You can make one from sheet metal if needed.) 2x M5 Nuts (Also Lock Nuts would be best) Sequential LED Strips: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2pcs-LED-DRL-Daytime-Running-Lamp-Strip-Light-Sequential-Flowing-Turn-Signal/383174835261?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3Ddff6cd897ce54454b5379f6997134026%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D15%26mehot%3Dnone%26sd%3D292032282132%26itm%3D383174835261%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2380057%26brand%3DUnbranded&_trksid=p2380057.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3A2634cad0-be26-11ea-bd5b-74dbd18008f6%7Cparentrq%3A1b234b351730aa119c233dc2fff7b864%7Ciid%3A1 1M Ohm Resistors: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0185FCM0W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Solder Connectors: (These are easier than soldering) https://www.amazon.com/Kuject-Connectors-Waterproof-Electrical-Automotive/dp/B073RMRCC3/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=15KP77VGBQG5&dchild=1&keywords=solder+connectors+with+heat+shrink&qid=1593888262&sprefix=solder+con%2Caps%2C162&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&smid=ANYCM9RSLDH7Y&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzT043SDlESzdGRFJQJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwOTkxODI2UkJRV0NTVUpLMjdaJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA5Mzg1MDgyS05OQ1NGTUhOSU4xJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==
