Anyone Attempt this New Mod? LED in the cupholder!?!?!
Hey Guys
so 350z's and other cars have LED's in the cupholders...has ANYONE done a lighted CUPHolder MOD? Now I know, most of us have the cupholder sliding cover closed, but has anyone done something freaky like sliding the cover back and it lights up inside? like a clean flush mount LED inside the cup holder?
what do you think? not worth it?

I like this idea, but I think the blue LEDs at the top are plenty of light at night. Cool idea though.

Thogh about it, but realized it might become a bit ricey. The ambient lights hear the dome lights are good enough, what we do need is some ambient lighting in the rear of the car like the rl's

My TL can do this, too!
Go for it!
Sounds like a great experiment! If it turns out you don't like the LEDs for whatever reason, just take them back out or disconnect them...

Furthermore, these mods completely destroy the integrity of the "MODification" to begin with.

it's me, Alan Rickman.

My tC had it
But as others have said - the lighting from above provides enough ambient light and looks good; I think cup holder LEDs would come off too bright or mess with the "mood" created by the factory blue LEDs
on a side note... bottle of water + leds in the cup holders that light it up.. pure awesomeness looking
