  • How far into the vehicle should the lights be?

    • Air space in light needed?

      • If yes, will need to be set further into the vehicle

    • Heat sink?

      • MSXIV reported lights heating up pretty quickly when run

    • Upwards and downward angle regulations are pretty small, will really only need to worry about the sidewards angle being blocked by car

      • If using strip, may not be issue?

    • Will there be reflectors inside the light fixture?

      • Metallic reflectors, or matte white reflectors?

        • Reference seems to be using a letter size piece of paper

        • Most cars use concave mirrors behind light source

    • Transmittance of light cover - Can’t be too murky or more space will be needed to double up on LEDs

    • From MSXIV:

    • Cover needs to be a certain size

      • Very small protrusion would impact aerodynamics more than larger, rounded protrusion?

        • Fact check me here!

  • No angle-related issues for running/brake lights

  • Shouldn’t be any issues with front turn indicator if they are sloped alongside the front

  • Rear turn indicator may be issue - Current drawing has 60° outwards, need 80°

    • Wrap turn indicator around the corner?
