That's what I was gonna do too. I was also thinking of sticking an LED strip under the prnd12, but may go with a short cold cathode because it would be a more even light.

Zman

Yeah, my LED bulb went out after 2 years. So I've been wondering what would be a good fix, would a strip fit in there easily?


> Indeed a strip does.
I've never messed with cold cathodes.

Zman

I got my glove box and oven lights working, and I hooked up the dimmer wire on my headunit.

As for the cupholder/shifter lights, I blew the fuse, I had the switch on like an idiot when I went to test +/-. The wires are the same color of course.

So which fuse would the parking lights and speedo lights be?

Admit1

When you put the LED's in did you have some kind of trim around them or is it just a hole with a light in it? I would kind of like something with some trim so it looks stock/clean.

Zman

Well in the compartment below the stereo you cannot really see the light itself, just the light emitting from it.

Admit1

I mean in the cargo area.

Zman

Oh, the LED module isn't the best looking, but it doesn't look bad at all.

You could buy another dome light for the rear. I think it's a little pricey though.

Maybe I could go snag one off of a junk yarder.

Zman

Ah I wish I could find a junked up one, I need so many little parts from it, ones that I'm missing or scratched up.

Admit1

Yea I am gonna keep on the look out for one.

Zman

I got everything working. I'm a little disappointed, the "blue" LEDs I got look strangely purple.

They are really bright. I folded the lights back to face the side of the cup holder and they still reflect off the windshield a little.

Here's a small LED strip for the shifter light:



Here's a single LED for the "oven":



LED wires twisted together



Light output is extreme! Too much for driving.



Rear light is under the fabric insert.



My dash =]





I love this thing.

Admit1

Pic of rear cup holder area? Dark lit up. Also where did you get the +/- for the power of the LED?

Zman

The rear for now just has a small blip of light, I think I'm gonna move the LED down in the area where the screw is located. Because now if I remove the fabric the LED lights up the whole car. It's a little ridiculous.

The oven LED is T-tapped into the cig lighter wires.

Admit1

What model of Dome light did you go with from Oznium, I am gonna order one soon.

Zman

You will need the ultra thin.
Also ask if they can give you one with a short wire, the light bulb is seriously 1 centimeter away, they gave me so much wire that I had to shove the slack beside the dome light.
I got 2.0"x 2.0". It is the perfect size.
Green isn't that great and blue is pretty good looking.
I think white or orange would be cool.

Admit1

I wanna get white, is there a link to a color chart? Warm white, white and cool white? What the heck do I choose?

Zman

I've seen a comparison on there.
I Google imaged it:

I would like white, but I wanted something that people would notice was different. (People aren't very observant)
Blue does the trick.

Admit1

I will do cool white for everyday purposes but then i wanna do blue for the show.

Zman

Yeah I wish I had gotten cool white instead of green as the other color I chose.

I really can't wait until I get my table for the passenger door AND the Clazzios.

Admit1

What part is the Clazzios?
