I am thinking of doing this to my SC. However, I would like to see some pictures on another SC before I start drilling Can someone please post pictures of a SC with "eyebrow" led lights.

Thanks.

I didn't drill any holes in my car to put on the eyebrow lights. There is a hole in the firewall near the steering column. It is covered by a rubber plug about 2 inches in dia. i just stuck a coat hanger through the insulation . It comes out near the emergency brake pedal. Then I just put the plug back in over the wires. I put a small LED on the bottom left side near my brake so i could know if the lights were on or off. In the picture the only lights that are on are the eyebrow lights.

I am thinking of going with these lights from ijdmtoy thus need drilling. I haven't decided if I should put them in a straight line by the fog light or in an eyebrow shape under the headlight. In either case I will probably end up putting more than 5 on each side.

Which one will look better? Opinions.

Cheers.

I guess it is up to you which looks better. I don't see why you will have to drill holes if you put the eyebrow lights on. They stick to the car and you just hid the wires.

Well, yes and no. I have them hooked up to an empty spade in the fuse box that is switched with the ignition. The LEDs are on any time the ignition is on. I currently have a switch next to the fuse box if I want to turn them off for any reason. I eventually plan to locate a switch inside the cabin for easier access.

StillLine, this looks very OEM!!!

This is great, care to tell us where you purchased the LED's? And how much?

I take it that the bumper had to come off?

Thanks.

StilLine & Mandyfig, looks great! Could you possibly post photos of them while off? I'm just wondering what the strip itself looks like and how it looks when mounted? Is the backing clear or black?

StillLine, thanks!

Bam! Got my set!

It is so thin that I see no problem. The SC and the RX will have a set!

Can not wait.
