thanks for the helful info you already gave me

 

i just want to confirm, i am getting from ozniums their flexible led strips: (2) 9.5" for the front and back, (2) 4.7" for the sides..is that OK to do my engine bay

 

what color are you gonna do..........so far I have seen a red and a blu in person and they look really nice........the blue was the best........

 

i want to do blue, i got a theme going

 

Is that the MOMO brake handle.........I keep mailing them (on ebay)to see if it will fit without mods and no answer back......is that the redline boote onthe brake as well.....how was the fit.......????

Blue will look good under the hood........

 

yes that is the momo ebrake handle and the redlinegoods boot and armrest cover, the factory handle i had to trim a piece off the lower end to make it straight it has a curve, the momo handle is a bit long, but becides that its a great fit, heres a better pic, and if you want to see better shots of my car heres my page link on cstc:

*Hey also just placed the order for (2) 9.5" and (2) 4.7'' flexible LED strips from Ozniuns..Thanks*

 

ur car is gonna look awesome.

 

The weather needs to warm up already, I have strobes plus more LEDs that are going in my engine bay, not to mention my angel eyes and HIDs gotta go in. Everything is bought just its too cold to work on it all. lol

 

guessing you never got the HID's done before the cold this weekend?? find someoen with a garage and heater in it. that's the only way we got my stereo half ___ done on sunday. work on it this weekend... supposed to get 40's possible 50's. whenever i get my other 2 led strips and fuse/fuse holder and what not you need to give me any advice you have for wiring lol. as my whole car i have to change the wiring.... new stereo is too powerful that i had to order a kinetik 800 batt just for my system.

 

thanks man, now today, im going to go see the LED guy who is doing all my work to take some measurements and to see whats the best places to install more led strips for the lighting i want to add in my rear trunk, so i can also place that order..gotta show off them subs.lol

 

Well here in Florida its been in the high 80's all this Holiday, but yesterday and today its in its 60'd due to a cold front that just came in

 

I think after I add a few more to the engine I will be LED-d out. Dont wanna add too much. And I have a garage to use just not enough room to take the bumper n all off. I'm not in a huge rush, gotta get a set of overlays for the HIDs from Bat in still also.

 

you must be geting lucky. my grandparents in arcadia said it was in the 30's last night.

any idea's how you're doing the hatch? just curious. your car will definately glow.... let me know what sizes you end up getting for front and back of the engine bay.

 

well i talked to someone who did his lighting with ozniums flexible led strips in his tC, and really looked awesome, so i ordered exactly what he used, which was (2) 9.5" for the front and back, and (2) 4.7" for the sides..he also gave me detailed installation tips, and i like how he mounted the front in a v shape position on top of the radiator shroud..he is on this tread also hes (BZinn1)

 

hey go on AIM i will give you the details he gave me

 

ENGINE BAY LIGHTING

(Flexible LED Strips)


http://www.oznium.com/led-flex-strips



• Under the back in the area that the white plugs hold on put a 9.5" strip.



• On the passenger & drivers side use a 4.7" strip.



• In an upside down v on the radiator shroud another 9.5" strip.




Start at the back and drill with 3/16 bit at the proper spacing of the LEDs and glue with super glue to inside of the cover attached to fire wall......it will take about an hour to drill and mount them and take your time and measure before drilling.

Run wires (+ -) to passenger side and crimp on a connector to the new LED and at other end of crimp continue with wires to next location.........all the way around to driver side do this......be sure to use heat shrink tubing over the crimps to keep it from corroding over time from moisture.........

what I did next was hide the wires along the power wires and behind the brake cylinder to fire wall and through the grommet all the other wires are going through.........then over the top of the steering column and use lots of zip ties to keep it clean........to switch with led in it from oznium............be sure to read what goes where on the switch .....I messed it up and burnt my fingers pretty good.......it is listed in the switch selling area what goes where on the switch......I crossed the (-) and the hot and when I turned the lights off it flashed my fingers pretty good..........

Take your time on the install and hide the lights good under the sides........out of site in the daytime.......and all wires too........they put out a lot of light.........

 

i would but i'm at work, ok i'll have to go the 9.5" strips cuz wasn't sure if 19 would be too much or 9 not enough

 

ok so when i go to wire up the positive to the battery seeing as it makes the most senese as the leds are in the engine bay, do i have to use an inline-fuse. Is that the same thing as the "fuse holder" being sold from oznium. If not what is an inline-fuse and where can i get it?

 

yes thats the same one from ozniums, i dont need to get one, because i had to get one when i did my interior lighting using their cathodes, so i already have one at my batterry

 

ok so what kind of fuse do i get for it?
