How much did that run you? I'm thinking about running some into the fabric on my convertible top cause the lights on the mirror suck ass.

Anyone know about these? http://cgi.ebay.com/24cm-Flexible-Ca...item2eb261ecad

Yea I have those in my trunck and under hood like maxgst has them. I also have them inside my hood scoop to make it light up. Those LED strips are easy to work with. Get them in white and see if you find a US Seller if you dont want to wait 2 weeks.

I could really use a trunk light like that! I live down a windy road so when I come home from the grocery store the canned stuff is always all over the trunk and its hard to see in there in the dark! haha. I could drive slower on that road.. but lets face it... Its not going to happen.

What do I need to do single bulbs? Like I just wanted to put one little bulb in the door pockets?

Really like the set up man you should do a write up on how you did it nice work

Its really simple, my dad had an extra roll of those led lights. I just cut about a foot for the trunk and wire them into the existing light in the trunk (follow the cables that connect onto the stock light and tap into the left top side of the trunk where the cables go into the inside of the car. Then just glue the lights into the roof of the trunk. And for the hood I just run a switch from the battery
