So are you saying that the more IR leds will alow you to see further?
I thought that the distance was directed to the lens only? I think i got one that shows 25/80 meters
oh here ya go...

looking good for me

and sure range is same effect if u would use 1 normal LED or 100
the IR LED emmit an IR light beam similar to an Lightbeam within the visible Lightspectrum and the Cmos camera will show you the objects enlighted by the IR Lightbeam .
A Real infrared Camera would show you also the heat of Living objects ( like the view of the "Predator" in the same named schwarzeneggermovie )

the biggest advantage that u have with the Infraredbeams is that u can iluminate the whole area in Front of the car without disturbing other drivers .
i think mercedes use also the IR Lightbeam method and BWM uses the real infrared cam tech

Very Cool project..Good luck.

What will you use for a shifter, because won't the standard Fiero knob hit whatever is in the drink holders?

you've inspired me to fix my center console but not go quite as far as you have. Yours looks like its going to turn out very nice.
