Hello LED's :)

Jake · 04-13-2007, 01:05 AM

Well I was finally introduced to the world of LED's here is my first work of art. I couldnt decide where to put the round switch so i ended up finding a round metal tube and wouldnt ya know it the switch sits perfect in it. It reminds me of 2 fast 2 furious, the button he uses to eject the seats in the muscle cars, its like that

I put 1 9 inch flex LEd strip under each footwell. And one 4.7 inch in the cubby.

Not sure about the switch, but it looks good.

Jake · 04-13-2007, 01:14 AM

I thought where the switch is placed is kinda neat

Thanks.

notsoaveragej0e · 04-13-2007, 01:18 AM

Yeah the placement is cool and all, I just couldn't help but laugh if i sat in your car and you whipped that out... unless thats the effect you're going for?

Jake · 04-13-2007, 01:21 AM

Lol, well, honestly i sat there for an hour thinking of where to mount the switch, it is so small there really is no good place. No im not gonna whip it out and be like BAM, CHECK THIS OUT.

. It is basically the only thing I could come up with, perhaps if I would have gotten a bigger square switch it would have been easier to place,. But I am pleased with this.

notsoaveragej0e · 04-13-2007, 01:29 AM

I couldn't help myself...focking insomnia...

do whatever you want, but i bet the cubby hole would have been a good spot for it.

Jake · 04-13-2007, 01:52 AM

You mean the hole on the left under the dimmer switch? That was my first choice, It just wouldnt sit right, the switch is like the size of a nickel.

Rich · 04-13-2007, 02:05 AM

yeah. you can put plexiglass there or whatever to mount the switch too. theres a how to around here somewhere.

Jake · 04-13-2007, 02:16 AM

O, didnt even think there would be a how-to for that haha. Well if I eventually add an underbody kit, Ill have to search for that. Thanks. EDIT : I looked for it and wouldnt ya know it, I found it, except none of the pictures work ne more

Rich · 04-13-2007, 02:46 AM

yeah. you might be able to pm or email him and see if he can put them back up.

KeyserSosa2000 · 04-13-2007, 05:19 AM

the lights themselves look good Jake. how long did it take you to do all that?

Mirage85 · 04-13-2007, 06:45 AM

I have mounted a switch right in my aftermarket headunit adapter. I just super glued a thick piece of plastic behind it and drilled a hole, popped it. Its teh same color as the mounting bracket, and you really dont even notice its there unless your really looking for it.

Bryan · 04-13-2007, 07:11 AM

Looks good, you should throw some single LEDs in the air vents.

AaronGTR · 04-13-2007, 07:36 AM

Uh no. LED's in air vents are uber r!ce. They are also distracting.

You have a point sir. I've never been in a car with them but I thought they'd look nice.

onesexyga · 04-13-2007, 07:48 AM

I just used one single 3mm led per vent. Its not distracting at all and i think it looks pretty good.

The glow looks good, but that switch has got to go. How about the dead space in between the shifter trim piece and the cupholder piece? Thats where i have my heated seat switch.

If it's your thread from a while back that did that install, it looked sweet.

Put the switch when he did when the novelty of having the dynamite stick wears off.

I thought about it but yea you are right aaron, I think they would get super distracting right there in my face becuase even these get a little distracting. LEARN TO LOVE MY SWITCH!

Its not like its sitting out there in the open it sits in between the console and the seat. but anyway, It took me about 2 hours from start to finish. And I'm really pleased with the outcome and will def. be buying from oznium again.
