I did some research and im clear to install the strips and wire them.

The problem is that i dont have any idea how to run the wire to hide them properly.

Im planning to hook them up to the cig lighter.

Any suggestion? :D

theres another thread on this. i hooked mine into the fuse panel in the passenger footwell. i have light in the front and back footwells. i ran the positive and negative wire into the centre console for the back and ran the front wires through the dash

Pull out center console.
Attach to positive wire for cigarette lighter, ground to chassis. Bask in the glory of your footwell LED's.
Or send me a pm if you need further help.

u can take out the panel for the centre console is, and where ur feet are, its just one of those pushpins, and then if u take both out for both sides, there is a hole u can push feed it through

What if you wanna hook them up to the the map light so they come on whenever the doors open? :/

It becomes a lot more difficult, adding probably an hour onto install time.
Clip onto map lights, feed under roof carpet thing, feed along wind shield, feed down A pillar, splice to attach to both lights, ground lights to source of chassis.

Going to bring an old thread back since I don't want to open another one, planning to do the blue LED underdash illumination light in my sky. Similiar to this

Thought it looks good and is nice complement for the sky interior blue theme. I'm just not sure where can I get them (sponsors?) preferbly with installation. Anyone here done it ?

I'm sure if you take off enough trim pieces and use enough electrical tape it will be pretty unnoticable, unless you and your passengers spend serious time doing handstands in your car.
