I just got some new speakers and was going to put a switch in there to turn the amp off bought one and now its to big to fit in there so when I get some underbody lights I will use that switch for them and but it threw the rug or something

I like those LED's....pic isn't that clear, but I get the idea. Nice switch location...might use that idea for the 50-shot that's going in this spring

not sure what kind of led's those are.. but you might want to sand the ends down some. it'll give a cleaner, more spread out light.

also change the angle of the one in the top right of the pic. seems to be pointing towards the left most plastic alot.


other then those two things... nice job. its good to see others using led's in different ways....

why don't you just wire the on/off through the stereo?

:wtf:

to each his own........ i once had switches setup much like yours, but having switches that high and switches that big, look at the car from the front outside makes the car look like hell and unclean. i like to have my switches somewhere low and somewhat discrete so that if a cop drives by im not reaching my hand in the air where i would get there attention. around here you have to watch out for cops with lighting of your car, they nailed me 3 times already.

for underbodies, i believe neons are. they seem to give a brighter more uniform glow... but lack the durability of LED.

interior wise.. from what i've seen myself... leds seem to be brighter, but that could be because they are much closer then they would be in an underbody kit.

When i first got my car i always wondered what the cubby was for I actually cut into the door to put my switches in (well my ex did). It looks ok I'll just have to cut into it some more so part of the 2 switches aren't hanging out, but they're not in use right now so i'm not worried about it.
