Ancalagon's LED Project *Interior and Engine Bay Complete*

Re: Interior LED Project *Updated with Interior Pics*

I didn't seal them on the top side, but I used these LEDs:

They are waterproof and have waterproof housings, and with the hot glue (or silicone if you prefer) on the bottom it should be pretty water resistant, at least to condensation or minor spills.

And I will post up some pictures of the cupholders soon, might make a short How-To, if you are just doing the cupholders it isn't that bad.

 

Re: Interior LED Project *Updated with Interior Pics*

Yeah I just drilled holes in the bottom of the cupholders. I did the change tray too cause I normally keep my phone in there.

Here are some pics of just the cupholders so you can get an idea how to do it, I will be putting up a How To in a few days, whenever I feel like taking the panels back out to take pictures.





(And no I didn't spill glue, that is from where that insulation material came off, you will have to rip/cut/etc. it off before you can work with the bottoms of the cupholders)

Got the engine bay wired and the LEDs mounted about two hours ago, here are some pictures....

Now I am taking a break for awhile.

 

Ah who needs sleep? Most of the work on these LEDs was done between the hours of 10PM and 4AM.

 

Really not sure, if you had all the LEDs and wire it probably wouldn't too bad. It took me about 2 hours and someone with more experience with wiring could probably do it quite a bit faster. Of course you'd have to find a place that would do it first. I remember most shops I called when I was looking for someone to install my Underbody Lights wouldn't do electrical or wiring stuff.

 

Yeah, I'll get DIY's for cupholders and footwells and probably the project in general in a bit. I am probably going to wait until after next week though since I have finals.
