So I wanted an LED in my cupholder because I actually use it a lot at night, and because I like blue LED's (footwell, and interior to match). I like doing the little homemae projects too. So I ordered some single LED's from street glow, bought a switch and went at it. All was well, until I tried to put the console back on, only to realize of tight that SOB is! so I had to dremel out of of the part under the switch ( so tight it caused the switch to be pushed out and be unflush.) so I had to deal with it... at least for now.... I should have put the switch on that arch thing that splits the two cup holders, but it put it on the back, above the cupholders on that flat part. Anyways, not enough room. Looks very homemade.

I guess my only solution is so get a rubber ring. like an O ring type thing and push the switch out a bit to make it flush with that....

ugh.... oh well, what can you do....

 

post pic i am curious to see what the turn out was

 

Yeah post pictures or it never happened.

 

I will.

I have an idea on a fix. I am going to flip the switch upside down. (it has a positive on one side, and a load in the middle, so one side is blank) that way it might not get pushed up. We'll see. If that doesn't work I am going to go to lowes or something and try and find a little rubber ring to make it look nicer.

the LEDs also kinda stick out, because they too were pushed forward. I am going to see if I can dremel out a little groove for the backs of them to sit in. I'll post some pictures of how it looks now, and how it looks after I tweak it a little tomorrow.

The switch was also supposed to have an illuminated ring around it, but it wouldn't work because it was so tight in there, I couldn't close the console back up. It is very tight in there.

 

Thats what she said

 

yes, yes it is indeed.

But we shouldn't get started with those jokes. I can kinda turn anything into one...
