Where is the best place to stick the LEDs? Can I see a picture of where it's mounted?

These are pictures of a combo set I made.

Blue lights operate with the door lights and the red leds operate with the parking lights.

sure, you just need to find a place to attach them and run the wires to a proper source.

Yes, however, you'd have to extend the wires.

I'd buy into your new set... The Red and Blue Combo!

That is not many either... 100 Minimum.. I assume per color.
So 200LEDs/16LEDs per Set=12 Units.

I am sure you could unload 12 Units in no time.

PM me when me set is ready so I can Pay ya!!!

EDIT: So in theory... If your parking lights are on and you open the door both sets light up and make Purple!?!?!? The contrasting colors (if the case) I bet looks real cool.

yea, if I open the doors and night, I get purple footwell lights. It looks awesome.

I'm not sure that I'm going to be selling the combo set. It effectively doubles the cost because everything is done twice.

Yeah it looks sick where you mounted it, I was just thinking that it would look pretty good under the driver's and passenger seat so not only the front get's lit, but also the leg-space for the rear passengers... Is extending the wires really complicated??

I'm not sure if it would light all the way up to the pedals if you put them under the seat. I guess if you faced the LED's towards the pedals, it might work...

Can ya send me your diagram of the splices so I can make my own, but save the hassle of finding the tie-ins for the Running and Courtesy power supply wires?

Stay tuned guys... I talked to Rasp and there is a possiblity of him making a final batch. Don't hold me to that though, he's just playing with the idea.

Keep in mind, these are a little on the time consuming side to make.

Jedi,

I'm a little more than interested! He has my money already. I was one of the first two to buy the ones he already had made. BUT, if it makes your case better to keep my name on a list, by all means, have at it!

hey, don't steal my thunder! Mine were the first set that Rasp installed and I love the subtle look to them. Just trying to get more people aboard.

Can I have these installed this weekend?

Jedi, I am located around you.

Maybe I can host a tech day since my company has a huge parking lot where we can all work together in.

NEVER would I steal your thunder. I only meant I was one of the first 2 within THIS thread to actually buy one of the two sets he was trying to sell.

I'm pretty sure, however, that when the folks on the forum saw that I was buying a set, that opened the floodgates to everyone else wanting them. (Don't you think?)

Anyway, back to the fact that you have kept your thunder.....(cuz, honestly, the fact that they were in your car did legitimize them - at least to me). So there.

Michael
