... in vehicle lighting.
Pretty interesting and cool - LEDs, LASERs, Adaptive Lighting, mostly on high end vehicles now (Cadillac, Bentley, Lincoln, Tesla), but the technology will trickle down ...

Scott, my boss at Varroc, is quoted in the articles.

Yes, these applications are being developed with Motorcycles in mind...

The links to the articles:

That's cool stuff Gig.  Now that you have an I/S again, maybe you can make something that will fit in our machines.  Should be a huge demand.  Should be alot of demand.  Should be some demand...oh, never mind.

Wonder if the LED's would throw off enough light to make the caddy lites worth another try?

I know G-man had to give up on his, not enough lite then something broke

It was a very cool look though
