Post "Feet Lights"...

I just installed my feet lights from the Inspire and for forty dollars I think they are well worth it. They look really cool and they light green like the light in the center console.

Where did you get them from? Did the lights cost $40 or the install?

My friend from Japan sent them to me and the lights cost 40 dollars. I installed them in 10 minutes. They were very easy to install. I'll post pics as soon as I get the film developed. Here's just a pic I have from the accessorie brochure from the Inpspire.

The lights them selves were 40 dollars. My friend from Japan no longer speaks to me so I can't order them for u. sorry. Ask Tim maybe he can get enough people to want them and he can order them from Japan. Right now Yen is really cheap in American so they are probably like 30 or 35 dollars. I don't know about shipping but Tim usually gives really good deals. They look even better in person. Reall easy install.

Did you screw your Japanese friend over or something for him not to talk to you?

BTW, can we talk to your Japanese friend so we can order those lights?

Value TL knows him better than I do. I think he's pissed cause we traded stuff. I sent him some expensive ass license plate frames and I don't think they fit. So I think he holds that against me. He sent me the feet lights, side fender markers and harnesses and the total was something like 75 dollars or so. Ask Value TL if he can hook you up cause my friend won't even respond my e-mails.

I want the same stuff that you got! Are sure you can't get anymore from your Japanese friend. If that's the case, you better watch out for your car 'cause I will rip them outta in a hurry.

There seems to be quite a few people liking these little lights. Hey Tim think you might want to give them the hook up??

i have feet lights, too, but i tried to make it look high tech, so i used black light tubes concealed beneath and it gives this purple color and highlights any white. the green looks kinda dirty to me.

Like I said they do look better in person. Thanks for posting StreetEfectz. I wouldn't put anything else in because these just plug right in.

They plug right into the passenger side fuse box. They also dim with the dome light whenever you close the door. I'll post pics soon.

No they turn on when you open the door. You can always turn on the dome light. Why would you want them on all the time?

OMG!! You need to get some new pedals if you are going to light things up like that!

It would be cool if we could get a neon light that was only 1.5" long to replace the dome light.. that would be a nice color and would provide the right amount of visibility...

The foot lighting would look nice too. I don't like the green that much though. Other colors like a neon white or that blacklight like bobatimez has would be nicer.

Question

What about that Norihito dude that used to post here? I have seen more current posts of his on h/a.net saying he'd ship Honda stuff to people.

Japan contacts.... I travel to Tokyo fairly regularly and have contacts there. Let me know where to find the stuff and I'll have one of my colleagues ship it, or grab it myself (June I think I'm back there - actually working with ~~Toyota~~ ). Why do they have stuff that we can't get?

So where can we get the lights? Ron, did you say you carry them? Should we just e-mail you or call you? How many would we need?

Or does anyone know of a site where I can purchase them?

I would definitely think it would add a nice touch to the car. Thanks
