A couple pics and a couple of some red district lights

Now I need to find a way to make a plastic insert/plug to fill the holes where the harness went before.

cool lights!

to fill the slots on the sides, I just spray painted some card-stock and taped it over the holes from the inside...good enough for now.

Thanks for the tip. I'm going to a craft store tomorrow and try my hand with some plastic mold making. Hopefully I can get it come out like I imagine it in my head

congrats Chris

are you doing other lights too?... I ditched the light idea when I went with the wire tuck... I've been considering it again, but I'm not sure if all the wires can be completely tucked.

I look forward to the final pics ~

Thanks Mike. Yeah, I have 3 other LEDs (cool white) in the bay as well. They each give off 120 degree angle and they are each 1 watt. Lots of light.

Check this site out when you're ready to do a kit again.

The ones I purchased are waterproof and heat resistant

Yeah, I was able to hide them all. Behind the plenum, under the fender well and even under the intake tubing. You have to look for the LEDs to find them as well. I tried to hide the direct light from all angles as much as possible so when you look into the bay from different angles, you don't get blinded by the light.

Will do Mike. I'll send you some beforehand if you are ready to add some to your bay.
