Red LED Floor Lights
Well I had installed a set of red Flex LED as floor lights for the front seats:
http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...9&postcount=54 After Installing them I wanted to get a set for the back seat floor. Finally got them installed and took some pics of it tonight. They are all wired into the original floor lights, so they go on and off with the doors, and they can be turned on with the door closed by using the "room" light switch on the roof. Pics taken at 8pm, close to dark outside, with long shutter, they are more red in real life: Last edited by Lookin4SVX; 05-10-2011 at 11:02 AM. |

Re: Red LED Floor Lights
You go to reading yes? You show us all there, yes?
Now that I'm done being Chinese, how much did this cost and where did you get all the parts from? Was everything difficult to wire up or pretty easy? For the love of God, please post a how to for EVERYTHING!

Re: Red LED Floor Lights
I no go to reading.
Suspension is shot, Tranny has issues with 2nd. Only long road trip I have planned is to OT.. when I can afford to replace both. Was really hoping to have it together for this year, but looks like its going to be another year before I get to meet some of you in person. Good news is the SVX suspension/tranny fund is at $2400 now. With any luck, I'll have the cash to get her fixed before long. Anyone know what the average wait time is on an appointment at OT? |

I think they were like $15-20 each set at autozone. Each set is two 12" strips, so do front & rear = 2 sets. + 6' of 22gauge 2 conductor wire to run the rears, $3 Total cost: ~$45 FLEX LED 24" - Bought at Auto Zone - 3M self adhesive flexible LED strips. Close to a write up as I can get: I removed the stock housing and I tapped into the stock floor light on the passenger side: Stock blub fixture, I removed some of the shielding on the wires, and tapped into it: Taped it all up so they don't touch and are not exposed: Passed the drivers side one to the drivers side behind the radio: I didn't take any pics when I ran the rears. :/ The rears I tapped into the same fixture as the front set, on the front passenger side. I then ran the wires under the carpet next to center console. Passed the drivers side one under the center console in the back, under where it opens. Self adhesive to under the back of the drivers and passenger seat. |

Re: Red LED Floor Lights
I'm glad someone else did this too!! i bought the blue LEDs and put them in the front...
I just cut the wires going to the stock illuminated entry lights under the dash and used butt connectors (or whatever they are called) to attach them. i was hoping that they would still come on when you opened the doors but no luck. i can however turn them on and off with the button like you. i also got those little LED replacement overhead bulbs too. MY CAR IS VERY BLUE ON THE INSIDE lol my gf gets blinded if i turn it on with out warning her first i will try and post a picture if you would like?
