Yes I will have photos soon to compare, just received the final parts to make the production items for underhood! Also the test items will not be free, but x amount will be sold off at discount to people to test out, eval / give feedback. These people will need to have basic install knowledge and some previous experience with other lighting products weather it be cathodes, leds or whatever. Just so the person(s) have somthing to compare to. Thanks for the great response guys!

I'll test the two dome and map lights (blue) if the price is good. I've done my gauges in blue led, my hvac (not the fix, had someone else do that), the stock stereo leds, change the map and dome lights, and currently installing my cold cathodes.

PM me details.

OH MAN! Had tons of fun tonight with the final versions!

The underhood final version features....
- Super high power neo magnet mounts " the leds lock onto anything metal under hood, or just zip tie them to anything you like! Will not scratch the paint!

- Flexible design. LED strip can actually flex to help fit your install!

- Instead of just 3 leds per length, I doubled the qty to 6 leds per 6inch length! Man these babies are bright!

- Waterproof design resists engine bay washes! "if installed correctly useing provided heatshrink duraseal connectors"

- Quick link connectable! This means that you can link together up to 6 led strips! Less wires and less mess underhood! You can also turn them all on via 1 switch!

- No crappy transformers to mount!

- 1 year warranty! Anything short of physical damage is covered for your vehicle! These babies are plug and play and should last a VERY long time!

- Price is expected to come in at $16.99

Wow i cant wait to see these bad boys.

Better yet maybe I could be one of the people testing them out. . Now that would be awesome.

I just finished installing a bunch of leds and neons for people around my area.

Garage if you dont mind, could you send me some info such as pictures and where i can send payment? I have done business with you once and I plan to again. lol

Have a good one.

Ok guys, produced a small qty of these babies in blue and white today. I have a limited qty so if you want to purchase the first ones to test and check out in your car, simply PM me for info and price. There is a discount for these first ones if you will give a review on them and how you like them.

Please specify if you are looking for magnetic mount version or standard versions that can be zip tied to anything.

This first volley do not have the ability to link. There is simply a positive and negative connection for each. They are meant for interior or underhood use. And they are BRIGHT! When powered on, do NOT look directly into them.

Here are some pics!
Flex string by itself


Blue flex string powered... overpowers the camera totally!


White flex string powered...


Optional Neo magnet mounts. These babies are STRONG! Makes mounting to anything a magnet can stick to a breeze!
