i haven't read anyone doing it

 

Not sure what your options are for getting in behind the logo, nor whether you mean backlighting to show through the logo (if its translucent) or recessed lighting around the face of the logo to light it up from the front (but hidden behind the black step edges). But any of those could be done with small LED lights in a micro-wire or flat strip configuration depending on how you want to light it.

As for how to connect it, run it off a relay from your parking/running lights circuit if you want it on when the lights are on, or any switched fuse (with an add-a-fuse tap) if you want it on anytime the key is on.

 

Yes I looked at the emblem. It is just a thick piece of orange plastic screwed to the step board. They are opaque I tried to shine a light though it with no luck. I was thinking of a some sort of orange light on a piece of lexan. But most of the leds out there are segmented. I would like more solid color. As far as hooking them up I can handle that. I will add a line, connecting into the running lights circuit.

 

Are you wanting to replace the plastic that's there with something more translucent? If so, you have a plan already. Find materials and start work.

 

I don’t mind replacing the plastic. I just want a solid glowing effect. Not a segment LED light effect. I was hopping someone’s has done something like that already and had some information on it.

 

I was thinking try to light it from the edge instead of straight behind. I also found this, it may help.

Yes that’s exactly what I was looking for. Thank you I appreciate it.

 

Look forward to seeing what you come up with.

 

Wow, I actually had a similar idea few months ago. Anxious to see how it comes out. Think it'll look cool driving at night with an orange glow to it.

 

I updated photos.

 

So here is the latest update. It seems to be working pretty good. Still needs some improvement but I’m getting there.

 

Are you wanting to cast a glow or just illuminate the TITAN? (no wrong answer here, I can see it both ways)

 

I used 1/4 inch thick polycarbonate and trimmed it to match the original plastic piece. And I machined a groove in it to press the lights into. I painted the back orange and sanded the front to look frosted. Still have to do some trimming and notching to get it to fit just right.

 

Its looking good!

 

Just a thought. Once you get it to the proper dimensions and illumination. Tape off the outward facing side and plastidip everything for light seepage and weatherproofing. You also could use something like this.

looks great, so far

Very pleased with the results.

 

 

Looks fantastic, take a photo further away with the whole truck in it, please.

 

Will do I will get it tonight!

 

Sweet!

 

Great job! Looks awesome!

 

 

Here are the pictures that was previously requested from further back.

 

Love it! You did a great job!

 

Thank you I appreciate it!

 

Great work! Might be a bit bright for my taste but still awesome nonetheless. Nice Armada in the back as well. Looks like my driveway of vehicles

 

Thank you. I appreciate it. Yes we are a Nissan family for sure. I’m on my 4th Titan. And my wife is on her 3rd Armada.

 

I agree 100%! I have had 1995 Nissan Hard body, 1996 Sentra, 1997 Santa, 2004Titan, 2-2008 Titans, 2020 Titan and my Current 2023 Pro4-X Titan. My wife has had 2011, 2016, 2021 Armadas. And a Pathfinder in between the 16 and 21. I wasn’t even in the market and found out about the 0% Financing and they had me again. Lol. 100,000 mile 5 year bumper to bumper is also a clincher.

Details on how you did this? Looks good.
