Roadster Glass Z - Anyone know of a way to light it up?

WithoutAdoubt · 05-18-2012, 03:55 AM

Hi guys, does anyone know of any way to light up the glass panel windscreen with the Z etched on it? I am sure I could come up with some way to use LEDS or what not but was curious if anyone has done it and what the results were. Thanks!

If you have the Z logo etched onto the glass in the center, most especially if its a "frosted" etching, a single LED strip at the bottom of the glass aimed upwards will light the etching up due to it catching the light.

Thanks thats what I was thinking about doing but didn't know if there were any kits out there, I will try and work something up, maybe a red one and attach it to the tailamps/brake lamps
