LED Wiring?

[Ramrod 10+ year member]

How are you guys wiring up LEDs inside the Sub box and Amps?

Seen guys wiring the LED's wire up to the Sub's terminals.. But I want my LEDs to stay on.

So I figured I'll wire them up to my Trunk light. So they come on when I open the trunk. Just looing for ideas on running the wires through the box? I think the Amp will be easy.

Leds have a negative and positive just run thw wires out theough a small hole and seal up with silicone or caulk. And just ground one end and hook up the other end to a toggle switch thats what im doing.

I can't see the links here at work.

I've been eyeballing these..

Single-Color Flexible 5mm LED Strip - Individual Strips - LED Strips - Lighting

He has this too.. A plug and play. Looks like it's soldered on to the light bulb itself.

Those you posted are actually pretty cool since it goes directly into light bulb socket hmm... Might actually buy one as the dumb mazda truck light is a TINY little bulb that barely lights anytjing up even if its an LeD
