Puddle lights
What do you guys think of puddle lights? The ones that go under the car, 5 on each side?

I think you would be better off just replacing the mirror puddle lights with a high watt LED instead. Mine light up the entire side of the car.

That's not a bad idea either but I'm going more for the look than the function. Good thing to think about though. Thanks!

They remind me of the led lights that are on the side of a walkway leading up to the front steps of a house.

I would prefer a more consistent light coming from underneath vs. the spots. I don't like the runway effect.

i love em, adds a nice custom touch imho. works well at night so you don't step on dirt or crap and track it into your car. but as some said, it's not for everybody.

I like it but I think the lights on the side view mirrors are good enough.

QUESTION: i've always wonder how do these hold up in the rain? i'm pretty sure different set's/brands have different designs. Oh BTW.. im from seattle.. yeah.. it's rainy city all day long.. haha.
