Post Got my LED's installed!!!

my friend @ Sound Advice Custom Sounds installed my alpine LED's(it's his signature for alarm install's).
I'm not sure if you guys can see it but it's in the front corners and the rear brake lights................

I was going to do the same thing with blue LED's in the front side markers and in the reverse lights out back.

I already shined a Photon blue keychain LED flashlight up to the lens, and the results are spectacular.

Yes, I'm running both the Alpine alarm and the factory alarm.

They are legal because like MafiosoTL said it only turns on when the alarm is armed.

can we just have them w/no alarm? how much?
I'm sure that you could run a on/off toggle switch with a relay, it is possible. Ask RON(streetz) how to do this. It could cost as little as $20.00 bucks or you could splice the door LED(factory alarm) and add more LED's.......

They just drill a hole a fit the LED's in then silconed it back, so my blinkers still work the same, also you can choose the color you want(ie..blue, red, green, etc...) No harm to the battery at all.

Why?? Why two of them??
Two would be better than one, plus if I wanted to only run the factory instead of the alpine(sometimes the motion is to sensitive) I can just turn on one or the other......

I'm thinking about doing the blue LEDs like that.

My aftermarket alarm arms and disarms my factory alarm. Why? Because it can I guess. Oh, if you set off the aftermarket, 2 sirens go off. If you set off the stock alarm, 2 sirens + the horn go off.
