What are the outside measurements on these lights? I'd like to see if I could fit them to a sc430 2002

I am anxious to see how yours look when you get them in. On my eyebrow lights I connected them to the radio 2 fuse at the kick panel of the passenger side. I used a piggyback buss fuse so they turn on with the switch. The radio 2 has a 20 Amp fuse and the piggyback I used a 5 am fuse. Works find so far.

StillLine has a better idea on his install.

He used the a live (on all the time) fuse connection. Hence he can turn the LEDs on or off on demand, with or without the car being on.

Awesome idea. On nights you can hit the on on your remote and your LEDs are shining bright! And since they are LEDs there should not be a huge load on the battery.

Thank you mandyfig! I'm very happy with the final result. Here's a showcasing my efforts. Total cost was $50 and about 2-1/2 hours of my time.

mandyfig,

So, what about simply sticking the strips to the middle two ribs? If you desire more surface area for the tape on the back of the strip to stick to, fabricate your "L" bracket to stick between the two ribs flush with the leading edges of the ribs, and there you go. Just my 2 cents.

Wow, why did I not think of that! Just stick the LED on the 2 ribs, making it it higher actually and probably more OEM'sh.

Thanks.

Another rendition, thanks StillLine!

Sold! My stuff should be here before the 4th!

Thanks again StillLine!

StillLine, I like what you've done here and thanks for making it so simple to install. I'm going to try this as well. I do have a question.....Is there anything that can be done to the "yellow" of the LEDs when they're turned off? Also, any suggestion on how to hide the black border?

Thanks again for the information,

Hide the Black frame...good observation. Perhaps paint it? Matching color of the body?

That is exactly what I had in mind! Perhaps you cut or sand a bevel on the outside edges of the LED frame and mount it from behind the middle bars so that they only shine through when on and not visible when off.
