Re: l e d

All my L.E.D.'s with the exception of the taillight panels I got from www.v-leds.com
The only lights I've yet to replace are the cablights and the front turn signal/parking lights.
I've got two 60" white light L.E.D. strips above the cargo area in the back of my burb that makes it like daylight inside at night. I also put a 24" a 12" and a 6" under the dash for the front floor area.
Will try to get pics of them all later to show.

Re: l e d

Ok heres a few pics of my interior L.E.D. light strips.
1st is the passengers side rear cargo area 60" strip. Got a matching one on the other side as well. I tell you what these puppies turn it into instant daylight inside late at night too!!!

2nd is the rear dome light in the rear A/C cover that's actually hiding my subwoofer amp since I have no A/C.

Next is the strips to illuminate my cubby hole, heater controls and switches

Re: l e d

The 60" side lights are simply hard wired into the dome light wiring above the headliner.
The lights on the dash are all twisted together, Positive leads all soldered together on one side and negative leads all on the other side and plugged into the factory light socket for the heater control panel using parts from these 2 items from v-leds.com

These are the light socket adaptors


And I trimmed these leads and soldered them to the leads on the lights then plugged them into the appropriate socket shown above.

Re: l e d

That's pretty cool, BLE 'BURBAN. How much do they run cost wise for a 24" and all the adaptors needed to wire it in?
