Blue LED'S

I'm getting some LED'S fitted to my car tonight and i know that may sound chavvy but i think it could work. Fitting the LED'S behind the metal section as show in the pic

Heres were there going, it will be on a switch and just purely for cruises and meets. What you think?

Re: Blue LED'S

dont think any1 but r12mus will like it tbh

but if you insist on doing it make sure they put the bulbs further back so you see a glow and not the outline of a bulb other wise it looks like a christmas tree .

Re: Blue LED'S

Re: Blue LED'S

It crossed my mind to remove the clear side lights and fit LED's and hook them up to the throttle position sensor and when driving they sit at blue but when the you put the foot down the change over to red. A black car with a bad-boy bonnet and 2ltr induction noise (full throttle) it should look good in someones rear view mirror

might leave clear ones in too i could chop and change the color to clear with a flick of a switch

Re: Blue LED'S

buy the set on ebay, stick it to where you want it after cutting it to size and then wire them to your side lights, as for wiring, im not 100% sure so maybe someone could elabarate on this as in how to do the wiring
