'97 Z3 third taillight "replacement"

[JSVice]

My Z3 taillight needed replacement. The circuit board was ruined and I didn't really want to shell out for a new one. I decided to get creative. Hope the link works.

Apologies. I think I figured it out. I'm new here.

Nicely done a lot cheaper than a replacement circuit board. I will take the opportunity to play about a bit and see what LEDs I could fit in there to maximise spread, make some letters or not

I thought I was buying one long strip, but oh well. It lights up. I wanted to salvage the old connector to avoid any splices.

Love a bit of lateral thinking, excellent job and saved a few pennies too
