| Posted: 9/24/08 1:33PM Post subject: LED Headliner |
|
|
First off... Hey all! I'm new here... I own an '05 PW xB. Having a blast with the endless ideas for mods!
One mod I had an idea for is an LED Headliner, similar to the ones in a limo... Has anybody ever done this to their box? If so, can ya post pictures or PM me some info on where to get this sort of thing?
I've had very little luck finding something like this.
Thanks all!

star ceilings though possible with alot of individual leds (not very cheap to do it that way)...
a cheaper (yet still quite expensive way to go about it) is to use fiber optics. limos use fiber optics along with a central, powerful light projector.
latest technology has made projector units smaller and smaller, along with even being equipped with high wattage LEDs
you can search various search engines (*cough* google) for star ceiling kits.. but yea.. it takes abit of work, and isn't something really cheap to do. |

Thanks for the info. Fiber Optic makes more sense...
If I get this mod done, I'll post up some pics.

| yea.. i've done quite a lot of research on this back then.. but doing it inside a tC wouldn't be as nice as doing an xB... (one of those times when i wish I had one to mod up.. :P ) |

Well, after doing a bit of research, I finally came across what is needed to pull this mod off. It'll cost around $300 plus a little bit of time.
Parts are on order right now. As soon as I find the time to get it done, I'll post pics of the finished product.
