Best Underdash lights
Hey guys.
Well i want to purchase a pair (2) of Led or Neons or Cathodes or watevers
for the driver and passenger underdash.
Read some thread about the cathods from oznium
and people debating about the better fit: LEDs or cold cathodes
and some other threads about different stuff.
SO! from which site is it most reliable (w/ a good price)
and what to get?
More suggestions the better ^-^ I know there were a lot
of posts like these but help out a newbie here. thx guys.
By the way~ CEL light is now OFF. thx for those who helped

Get these + the Scion tC rocker switch. They match the dash perfectly with the amber dash and are hella bright. I would highly recommend them. I just installed a set in my girls car 2 weeks ago and they're amazing.

i needed to get the fuse WITh the adapter and came out around 17~18.

another switch and a fuse would be a good idea.
but nothing else that any cathode kit wouldn't need. find switch at home depot or lowes, a fuse.. whatever you wanna use
wire it up.

FYI, I had cathodes that were for a computer in my car previously to my purchases from Oznium and they sucked. I have red ccfl's in my car and amber led strips in the gf's tC. The parts I recommended to you from Oznium will make for a very clean and easy install. It'll probably be about $30 for the whole setup including shipping, but IMO it's worth it knowing you'll never have to change them. And the tC rocker switch is great. Fits great and looks factory.

cold cathodes were originally made for computer case mods... even oznium's setup really is for a computer..
where'd you get your cathodes that you're complaining about drizz?
the rocker switch is nothing more than a gardner-bender gsw-45
it is NOT an OEM switch, and it was certainly not made for our car... merely a switch that was manufactured that people found to fit nicely in our switch panel.
