Default Pics of LED cupholders

Just finished the wiring on my new Curt Mfg. hitch and took some pics of my LED lights in my cupholders. I couldn't stand driving around searching for the cupholder.

I cant beleive you are towing stuff with your xB that is crazy. We have echo motors in our boxes and the scion has a zero towing capacity. There is all kinds of no no's posted on scionlife.

To each his own on towing, just don't show that pic to a Scion service center. Like the cupholder LED's I have green in mine and di the rear cupholder in the OEM armrest.

Default Cup holder mod for tC

Can you do this same mod on the cupholer for a tC? Can easily make it to where they only come on when the doors open? I leave for work before light and come home when it's dark. It's about 75 miles one-way and I don't know if I would like them on constantly.
Thanks.
Matt

I have the LED under dash and cupholder lights and they come with a switch that allows you to, turn all on, turn all off, turn on underdash only, turn on cupholder only. I suppose you could connect it to the door through a switch, but not sure how that would work with the current multi-control switch. I like that flexibility of control and personally like the extra light in the cabin.

You can hook them up to the door plunger, but that ia a long way to run the wires....Not a voltage problem, just a logistics problem.
My daughter wants me to run some LEDs to the rear holders in her tC....

The wheels on the trailer are bigger than the wheels of the xb. Throw on a go cart engine and the trailer can tow the xb.



Actually im going to try towin a trebuchet soon planning ahead for pumpkin chunkin 07
