I think this should be hooked up to your headlights so when it comes on automatically it will turn on too!

I put these on my GS a couple of months ago. They are nice for the price. I had a hard time getting the desired look because of the angle of the back face on my side skirt. ( I wasn't into drilling ). All in all they look pretty good, I did tie them into the lights in my footwells so they fade in and out with the rest of the lights.

That would be the ideal setup
.. have them come on as you unlock the car.
I've had them on my car for over a year. They're linked to the dome light so they fade in/out when you unlock the car or open the door. When I was mounting them, I looked at the tape, had a good laugh, and just removed them. I can't find the pics right now but I'll post them when I can. Girls love them.

these lights were strictly for show when they came out, and i think "puddle" light was coined for lack of any other term. pod lights or step lights are other words i've seen thrown around, but none really are exactly descriptive either
They are slightly angled. The second picture shows them not lined up completely because it was taken the night after I installed them but they're lined up correctly now.
They've come in handy on more than 1 occasion. I was parked on the dirt shoulder which was muddy and almost stepped on it. Girls have almost tripped on curbs because they're just that stupid but the puddle lights have saved them. And quite frankly, they just look damn good when they fade out or when they're on for that matter.

Yeah... I'll get them whenever I have the time to figure out what to do with the underbody cause I remember looking before (I've wanted to add those lights before) and I remember there wasn't any good mounting (If I mount it right at the lowest point, there's a very good chance I can break them when I go over speed bumps with the car full. The Prius has really low ground clearance).
