Title: '70 Charger / Challenger Driving Lights - Multi-function
Post by: bigblue73 on September 28, 2010, 07:36:41 PM
Here's something that I've been working on for a few months and it's finally come together.  LED driving lights for the 70-74 Challenger and 70 Charger.  Please note that these LED arrays can and will cross into other models and makes.  This is all plug and play, no modifications of any kind to the stock items.  More to come.  Thanks -  Tony

Sorry the Photos are of my Challenger but I had to share with all the Charger owners.

Yes.  Do the '68's shared the same parking lenses as the '70's.  I don't think they do so I'll have to verify it.

They are different - but very similar.

The LED arrays are built to show a "white" driving light in the parking light position of the headlight switch.  If you wanted to switch between colors you would need another position on the switch or another lighting circuit.

Update -
I purchased a lens from a member here and found a very interesting detail with the lens.  The factory places a diffuser over the bulb with what my guess is spread or scatter the light and make it so the amber bulb is not seen.  My issue, would you modify your lenses to install these or my alternative is to make an offset bracket to recess them into the housing a little more.  I need a car preferably located near Columbia, Missouri.  Any takers.  I'll have the offset brackets laser cut tonight.

What exactly do you need? I'm in Cincinnati. All my Chargers are from 68 but I have two 70 Challengers.

I've been asked to post a photo of how bright these lights are.  As you can see they can light up an area!
Sorry for the mess in garage!
