im buying 10 leds and 5 sets of cold cathodes and 3 oem scion switches. i want the 10 leds on 1 switch 3 sets of cathodes in the foot wells and under the back of the front seat one set for each seat on one switch. And the 2 sets in the trunk on 1 switch. I need to know where to get the power from for each switch where to hide the wires and if that is to much stuff on each switch. plz help diagrams and picture would be nice. plz help me thx.

 

get power from the battery or fuse box.
hide the wires however you can....

gut car... hide wires behind panels... under carpet.... lots of possibilities..

 

how do i get power from the fuse box

 

go to autozone and buy something called "add a circuit". My question is, how would you run cold cathodes in your trunk to the dome light so they lit up whenever the dome light lit up?

 

in puting the tunk cold cathodes on a switch by them self

 

connect it to the dome light circuit?

perhaps a relay would be a good idea.

 

you should check out Randode.com for his prices, he hooked me up with my cathodes

 

I just installed some LEDs today in the two center vents, and door handles, and cathodes by the feet. I havn't had time to do the two side vents and cup holders yet.

I got a switch from Oznium.com (the big black one all the way on the right) and got some wires and all the LED's there. 5mm blue, with the plastic holders. You also need resisters to sodder all to them too. The door handel ones are the only ones that are not on the switch, because i havn't had time to run a new wire all the way threw the door.





I got those two smaller switches from auto zone, and the LEDs in them were waaaay to bright, so i disabled those and put two 5mm LED's on the extra blank.
Your question about getting the power; i ran a new wire from the battery to behind the switches, and went in the switch, and then out to all 8 locations. That is to many wires to come off of one switch though, so i used a distribution block to devide the output of the switch, because it's really hard to crimp 8 wires together and connect it to one switch.

I guess i should have made a DIY out of this...lol, oh well. Next time!
