very sweet....your work looks great as usual. in looking through your other pictures i came across this one and have a quick question...

<img src="http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c395/fly300kts/IMG_7746Large.jpg">

what are the resistors mounted to in this picture?

im working on hooking up some resistors for some led drls (i have the larger resistor pictured here and am hooking it up to 1 1156 bulb) and the resistors seem to get very hot (which im guessing is expected). i was just wondering what you have your resistors mounted to and if you have any other tips on where to place them in the engine bay for keeping them cool.


TIA

When I retrofit Customers headlights with my LEDS strips, I mount the resistors on the back of the plastic housing, and I insert this Hi_Temp material that we use on aircraft.
