Default interior glow!

Hey guys!
I'm starting to get into customizing my box a little more, so far all the interior silver trim and accent pieces are hot pink and I've got sound deadener in the back half.
BUT, I wanna get a little more pink in my box soooooo, I want to have some glow under the seats and under the footwells and stuff, but I don't know how to go about it. I know that I want the switch to be wired in to my headlights so I don't accidentally leave it on and have it eat my battery.
I've seen a bunch of people reccomend oznium.com, but would this style [ http://www.oznium.com/led-flex-strips ] work? And how would I wire that in to my headlights?
Please and thank you!

You can wire the positive end into your fuse box. Feed the positive into a fuse that turns on when the ignition is on. You can place the negative end on any metal piece that is grounded. Or wiring them to your running lights would work to. You could T-Tap into the running lights. Those look perfect!

Some Pink HVAC dials might add a nice touch?

These may work better for under the seats + dash or interior glow. http://www.ledunderbody.com/pink-exp...hting-kit.aspx

This remote controlled set is expandable daisy chain light set connected meaning 2 wires come out of the control box to connect to the each set led tube strip for the left + right side. Which you can add/order more led tube to each set of wires on the right side or left if needed.

You will need to measure the wire length from the control box as to where you want the lights to make sure each wire tube will reach when the wires are hidden before you order. Customer Service is very helpful if u have any additional questions.

The other cheaper pink light kit that may not work for you are very limited in the wire length for all 4 led tubes + not remote controlled
