Let me know when you wanna catch up and see the car. It hasnt happened in a long time since we started planning.

As suggested by condor, you can try out full fledged bread board setup. You can use 9 to 15 LEDs(3 per series with a resistor). |
Who said i didnt get a soldering iron?
I tried the white LEDs soldered together with a resistor, but it didnt work. i then decided to try the crude approach. I did bend the LEDs downwards, but since they are in the left side of the holder, they emit light more to that side. Will filing them prevent them from being focussed?
Will try the board setup soon.
