I am going to supply the parts for a few $ to make it worth it.
Requires some level of soldering ability and eye hand coordination.
I may do a short run build but it'd have to be
well worth my
time to do so.

I designed and assembled them yes. All parts are easy to get if you know where to look

I suppose I could keep private any development work I do on the car, but why?. I'll make it all open including schematics and circuit simulations.
Lots of time went into this including a build of several prototypes.
One design worked well but was not efficient enough. The current one is not only efficient but more light with fewer parts
For anyone the enjoys this sort of thing here is a plot of V across the LEDs and power dissipated by the dropping resistor as a function of battery voltage to make sure everything is kosher.
