Check that thing out! Very cool!

If that's reproduceable, you should post the mod, because I can see lots of people doing that one!

umm... didnn't undrstand that.. but any ways... this is my mod a have done ,but beacuse i had only 1 smt led ( the other burntout when desoldering) i try i't on my mini-z.

i soldered thin copper wires( kinda like the steering wires ) to the SMTled andsuper glued the led to the tip of the antenna. cause the wires are very thin, i wrapped the aroung the antenna and into the car. it's fairly easy once you sand off the enmel coating on the wire and solder it on the SMT-led

aight then

later
