Need tips on installing interior lights please..

Hi,

My friend just got a nice 2008 tsx and he wants me to install interior led strips under the dash to shine on the foot panels. Would the best way to install straight to the battery? Can I have some tips and suggestions please?

Thanks!,

Wiring Depends on when you want them to come on... Straight battery will mean they stay on all the time... So think about when you would like em on and I might be able to suggest what wires to tap.

depending on how you would like for the lights to turn on, you would tap different wires

if you wanted the lights to turn on when you open the door or turn on the dome light, i would tap it to door trigger

if you wanted to fully control it, you could wire in an on/off switch and mount it somewhere on the dash
