Good place for cheap lighting

[Ridley 10+ year member]

Do you guys know of any place where I can find some cheap LED/Neon lighting for my interior. After getting my system installed, I feel this would be the next thing to do to make my car stand out. I'm looking to have all 4 floors lit and maybe something for the subs in the back. Any ideas?

you could just use a lot of single super bright leds. it is more of a wiring hassle but you can hide them easier and have more control over where you want the light to be. even add multiple colors in areas. led's look good to me if their consealed. if i see the glow w/o the light bulb/led it's nice.

What im thinking of doing is under both the driver and passenger side seats, have a blue led and a white led crossing eachother, one on each side. You'd see the line where they connect. I'd do something similar for the back and trunk as well. How do I wire this stuff? I don't want to have to use the 12v adapter.

what you should do is purchase an led rocker switch. use that to control on and off. buy an automotive relay like this http://www.radioshack.com/sm-12vdc-30a-spst-automotive-relay--pi-2062477.html

then hook the relay to the rocker switch to control the leds. then just follow the wiring diagram that is posted on oznium for the leds.

the halos in my head lights run off a relay and an led rocker switch.

I bought a ton of the cold cathode lights over the years. Mainly because they're uber cheap, and if you break one you dont feel too guilty //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

How many of those LEDS do you guys think I'll need to light up all 4 floors (2 front, 2 back) and to make my trunk light up bright.

I need to know how many I may need to light them.
