Re: Adding leds
I got some blue LED tubes. mounted them under the dash. I hooked into the parking lights and found a good ground. Really easy to do. Bought lights off ebay and they are really bright and nice.

Re: Adding leds
i would just get some 12v led assembles, found all over ebay, and just splice them into the lights under the dash.

Re: Adding leds
I put some blue LEDS from Autozone under the dash of my 07 NNBS. They are on a switch though. Sometimes they're annoying and glare while driving.

Re: Adding leds
I'd like to buy from http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...roduct=ACCENTS Would four of the ALM-RB-x3 Accent Light Module lights work If I just put two under each seat and had one pointing toward the front and one to the back

Re: Adding leds
I went ahead and ordered some lights yesterday. Is there anyway to have them come on with the courtesy lights but also be on a switch so I can turn them on whenever I want?
