    Exactly. It wouldn't look to me you did anything to it as it does look like it came off the line like that.

    Be sure you get a sequencer kit that
    does not put the load of the extra 4
    bulbs on the InterConnectModule. :)

    Most of the kits time out after a while and stop
    sequencing the 2 inner most bulbs to help with
    the ICM overheating/burnout problem.

    Personally I think it depends on what you're doing with the rest of the car. If it was me, I'd do the light bar if I was running some stripes. The idea being that you're breaking up the color of the rest of the car, why not do the same to the tail? If you're staying a solid color, then I'd consider blacking out the tails. Either look works.

    Not a bad idea, but do you think the tail lights all black will make a difference on the whole car color matching?

    In my mind it does make a difference. You're talking about a big chunk of red being removed. If you consider the tail to be part of the color pallet of the car, blacking it out to match the black trim around the lights makes for a very bold statement. The fact that his car is orange and has a bunch of blacked out lights already, blacking out the tail makes a big difference in the over-all image of the car. I wasn't a fan of the orange color for myself, but he's done a killer job of setting it apart and making it work.

    I've been considering the black out tail lights because I think the red clashes with my stripes - it's a little thing, but it bothers me :)

    The "sequencer kit that doesn't put the load of the extra 4 bulbs" ?!?

    It looks like, from the diagram, you rigged it so all four will sequence, right? And you ran a wire directly to the batter?

    Tell me more - because I just received my kit from 213 and I *want* all four to sequence!
