Default The parts

The parts were
1 rear defroster AS-Is pulled from a jeep Cherokee -$1.99 <real good deal!
100 ultra bright blue LEDs with free resistors- $8.99?
regular like 18 gauge wiring and some electrical solder
with really ****ty soldering skills, I only messed 1 up.
These blue are well bright enough!
Ohh the work wasnt much, it was mostly a learning experience. If i did it over, itd take half the time,and theyd look a little better. There plenty bright, like there not gawdy u know?

Ill get better pics tomorrow!
keep the comments coming
