yeah i could change later... but why waste my time/ money. i'd get the infinite color, but no controller? i bet when i got them all hooked up i wouldnt be able to get them to change in sync. still cant decide what color.

 

Im gonna do the same but since i have the RS 1.0 i have leds in the cup holders im gonna run em down the center pillar and tap in under the seats.


but yeah the strips mounting local is excellent!!!!! Big Props!!

 

Did mine tonight.

Thanks for the great DIY.









I considered doing mine off of the dome light then changed my mind to go off of a switch. I am glad I put it off of the switch.

 

I ordered 4 green lights but 2 of them are on back order. So when I get the first 2 I will install them and wait for the other two.

 

I had the same situation. Its easier to do them all at once . . .

 

I guess I am adding this to my list of future Mods...looks really cool...

 

Spend $5 on a 1/4" chisel and that center rib melts away like butta'!

 

You have to be careful chiseling though. You can "bruise" the plastic if you get too close to the outside of the handle. Then you will see light spots on the handle.

 

that is really cleaver...i would have never thought of that...nice work

 

Is there a way to wire this into the switch that turns on the lights where your feet go? (I was suckered in and bought the factory ones and I have the switch near my handbrake / shift *** ) I was just wondering if I can hit that switch to turn on the floor lights and these ones. Also, how hard would that wiring be? I'm a novice, so if it would be too challenging or too big of a possibility to screw something up, I'd like to know. :D

 

It wouldn't be hard at all. Pull the wires from the grab handle LEDs along the edge of the headliner (you'll have to remove trim like B pillar to push wires up under headliner). Once you get them to the A pillar, ground both lights there then continue running your power wire through side of dash and to the footwell lights. Now just tap into the power wire for your factory lights (from switch).

 

Alright, sounds awesome. Thanks.

 

...so can i join the club?

 

So I REALLY like this, If i buy the ones for computers, will it be just as easy, or are they different?

 

probly fairly the same, but i swear by oznium!

 

bfurches... I'm so glad someone did this to their XA!
Love it! Any tips or a " how to " for an XA?
Looks awesome

 

i will be making a video for SCTV on how to do it.

...i might even sell a kit with a preassembled handle and harness if i can get some interest.

 

dude you should totally do it

 

i will post up under the xa home section...

 

Could someone draw up a real simple diagram showing how to hook all four up to a power source and switch?
