Default "Command Logic" lights. I don't understand.

Okay, so I don't understand what's so amazing about these Command Logic lights guys, I have installed my own lighting system in about 7 cars, my buddies give me supplies and 5 dollars and I do all the stuff myself, are they just kind of a way of conviently doing it or what?

Default yeah

They work like this:

car is still: lights are dim
Throttle: front lights brighten
Brake: rear lights light up along with front
reverse: front lights brighten

Hmm, well maybe not as "advanced" but the LED's do recive more power while car is in motion and become brighter but not a whole lot.

They just make life easier for all us people who are to lazy to make our own!

If you are making your own and they are decent quality you should start selling them via the board!

u can make custom underglow by just pointing the LEDs downwards.....but i hate those they just crack when u hit something, instead u can just cut off the part sticking out and glue the LEDs on the cover
