Why have a switch? Why would you want to turn them off? Mine are on when the dash lights are on and off when they are off. Plus, I can dim them with the standard dash dimmer. All for $8. That's what....$291 less than the dealer. :?

 

pull out the console with cupholders, theres lil crosshairs on the sides of cupholders under console, put the led's in the center of crosshairs

 

for $10, this is definitely going in my xa this weekend :D

 

LOL, I stopped at AutoZone and got the expensive $14 color changing LEDs and they are going in after the kids go to sleep. :D :D

 

That's cool! Do they cycle through the colors automatically, or is there a selector switch of some sort?

 

I don't know...I'll post results in about an 1.5 hours...

 

DO NOT GET THE MULTI LEDs!!!

unless you want a disco car. YIKES! These LEDs start off slow then start pulsing really fast. Not exactly what I wanted. Bact to AutoZone for regular LEDs.

BTW, this mod is super EZ!!!

 

Awesome! Thanks for the tip!

Can you run your LED light kit of f the same wire, or is that too much load?

I'd love for everything to go on when the lights do and like the idea of being able to dim 'em.

Thanks.

 

LOL!!! Thanks....I like starting out my morning with a good laugh! I'm sorry you have to go through the trouble of redoing it, but that was a funny post.

 

hmm where did u guys tap into the power? did u buy pre resistored leds?

 

Read the very first post in this thread. It's a VERY simple mod. Have fun.

 

thanx i feel like a dumpass lol. i allready have lots of blue leds but they arent resistored so... hmmmmm do xb's have the built in plug too? i would assume so but can never be too sure

 

I wouldn't know if the xBs have the same plug. If I had to bet money on it, I'd say they do. The 3 pack of LEDs I bought from Advanced Auto were called LEDs Anywhere. They come with the resisters on them already. In the package, they come with a small pushbutton switch and a temporary battery connected to them so you can push the button and see them light up in the store. When you open the package, you clip off and throw away the pushbutton and the battery.

 

Well gee, that would have been nice if they did that to the Disco pack!! :D :D

 

"Disco Pack"...LOL.

 

LED's have such a small load, I really wouldn't worry about it.

 

I wired 3 LEDs and the light in the "Oven" to this source. Everything works great.

 

So what color did you decide on since you returned the disco pack? There is a setting on my 6-disc stereo that will cycle through all 10 colors of it's display. If I would leave it on that setting and install the LEDs you had, it would probably cause an epileptic seizure.

 

LOL!

I went with red since I rewired the "Oven" to a switch. It has a nice glow especially with a clear water bottle in the holder.

 

Hey do you guys know if ithe center console will lift off as easily on an automatic tranny car? (It's my wife's). I'd like to install these on her car...on HELL of a cheap christmas gift! ;) Cheers.
