    Default anyone know about Fibre optics?

    specifically where i can find CELIS like fibre optic material, I have found this at 3m but haven't really found any suitably small LED illuminators.

    I was thinking of fiddling around and trying to make an e39 series 2-esque tail light for the e34. I love those CELIS tail lights!

    Actually found out more, there is also this stuff called Luxaura which is an acrlyic rod that functions the same and are heat formable. they are also relatively cheap too. Extreme LED has them as well as "light engines" which look like just 3 leds in a plastic cap so i might just make one myself.
    as well there is Lumenyte which sell fibre optic "linear emitting fibres" that run off led engines.

    The only problem is that the previous generation of jettas/passats had those - ruined it for me, but they do look good on an E39 if you know it's an E39... lol...

    In all honesty, if I wanted the E34 to look like a E39, I would have bought one. Not my cup of tea really. But it does look like a E39 from the back.
