Yes, a lot of effort for little reward but, thought it would finish my little scout rig out nicely.

Do it, then load it up and head out to Sandusky... You can still make LEOPA.

I'm doing these on mine as uplighting for night and it just looks cool shining up on a white hull.

I got pulled over at 0430 one morning driving the 650 to work. PoPo said the blue shining Forward was illegal. No ticket, didn't even ask for my ID.
I turned off for 5 miles then turned back on. Fuk M
I have never had an issue towing w the trailer lights on. BUT that doesn't mean it legal or not

The lights on the trailer change color w a remote.

I did the under hull runway lights using simple led 2 diode clearance bulbs, have 10 on each side, hooked into my lights but did add a disconnect just in case I got hassled, but never have

Are any of your lights wired into the turn signals? I'd like to have some amber strips come on with the running lights (on all the time) but also blink for the turn signal, but can't seem to figure out an easy way to make that work..

Buying options seam to be endless… Good god, could spend hours for a 20’ bright white segment? Any luck by others finding lengths greater than the norm 16’? Different note, thanks Dan for the input. Hope u get those motors back together…
