Sorry, should have said a little more about it,..
varad came up with a 4" diameter electroluminescent pad, that can be powered by a 12v source, and when you put an image on top of it, well, you've already seen the result. They generally show up white-ish in the daytime, and glow what ever color you received at night. as far as where you put them, where ever you want. This one i just printed my image on a overhead projector clear paper. And then cut down to size. But there are plenty of images you can do.. It’s only about 1/16 or thinner in thickness, so it doesn't look funny. but there are all sorts of things you can do with this.. I’ve put mine in the port window behind the driver seat. Later this week I’ll try it on the wind deflector, and after that I’ll try it out on the back window...
i'll post pics after lunch of what it looks like on the TC...


here's a picture of the one i did on my old Z

I think it could look good with the under dash led set and all attached to the same switch.

What ever happened with that illuminated door sill thing someone was trying to get together??

I think the only place i would put it would be in the cubby hole in front of the shifter, of course with the dash leds blue, and under cabin blue.

People need to be careful where they install these and what colors they use. As an example, it's against the law in some areas to display red of blue lights anywhere that someone might mistake them for a law enforcement vehicle.

Regardless, I think it looks good and opens up a lot of customization possibilities.

the item itself looks pretty nice and clean, but i don't think it looks good on a car if i was driving down the road and saw one of those. it almost makes the car look cheap. kinda like one of those auto zone led add ons...

i could be wrong, some ppl are really creative...
