Strobe Lights? LED'S?

So I've been pondering putting in LED's in the dash and on the inside of the car.

Is there anyone out there that has done this mod?

If so how'd it turn out?

Pics?

Thanks

Don't strobes require drilling a hole in the headlight to install?

Not unless they're the strobes that fit in the peanut bulb housing, i heard that you can just stick them into the 163/194 bulb housing... so the corner bulb on the 02/03's

well if you put them in the grill all you have to do is make a mounting bracket and the corner bulbs will fit as long as you buy the right strobes..

when yall put your "puddle lights" are you using neon or led's?

a lot of us??

anybody who has it gives their opinion..

if its more specific and easier to answer.. more answers..

if its a really broad question... then you're jut gonna get people asking more question to your questions to find out more..

anyways..


if you've searched around a bit.. you would've found that people just put in LEDs on the gauges..

or others have done a lot of work and soldering and stuff like that..

check CL section too as they are just the same but with 2 less doors.

Main Forum. Or possibly Electronics, although that is more stereo and gizmo's.

I know it's a change from the way "Modifications" have been applied in the past. The intent to get ALL the car forums operating this sub-forum in a similar manner.


Moved.
