Default Ravvee status! 56k warning

I installed blue LEDS in my interior and puddle lights, i love them makes me feel like i'm in a rave whenever i get into my car and bump the techno, i have to admit i like to drive with these lights on which probably isn't very legal lmao but oh well. so if u see an IS thats cruising by with blue inside its prob me haha

I want to get my puddle lights to turn on with my domes so i can turn them on whenever i want, i feel like they are wasted and are only usefull for the few seconds i walk up to my car and start it =\ but yea just wanted to share

Wow, looks nice! ... I think you should change the rear license plate lights to blue as well...it would go nicely with your blue theme you have there ...

yea i was thinking about it, i kinda wanna be able to turn off all the blue lights whenever i want, or by a flip of a switch due to how much of a pain cops are becoming in huntington beach, ca. i'm going to hook up some LED strips below the dash and under the seats. Then i'm going to try and wire my puddle lights to my Dome lights so i can turn them on only when i want to when i drive haha if anybody knows exactly how to do it please let me know cuz im just gunna take the mirrors appart and the dome console out and see what i can do

www.v-leds.com well if u switch to blue its not going to be as bright thats the only downside, but i dont mind. i spent probably about 60 bucks in LEDs the ones i got are....

Rear dome light (2 req)
SUPER BLUE 9 LED DOME LIGHT 3022 3021 DE3175 6428 6430
http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...id/0/SFV/32481

puddle lights (2 req. can't see them in any of my pictures but these things project very very very nicely at night)
2 V-LEDS BLUE HIGH POWER BULBS 194 168 158 2821 2821
http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...id/0/SFV/32481
comes with a pair

front dome (3 req)
to try and fill out the front dome, which is hard, i got these ones that have alot of spread, it did a good job it doesn't look too focused up front.
and i actually threw in one of the High power bulbs that i used for the puddle light, because i only bought a pair and i had bought to many high power bulbs but it still works good
2 V-LEDS BLUE 11 SMT LIGHT BULBS 194 168 158 2821 W5W
http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...id/0/SFV/32481
ONLY comes in pairs of 2, so you'll have an extra
