--Map Light and Footwell MODS

Well a little back story...so i'm driving home from Houston(Astros Game) and I drop my phone .. Its super dark so i cant see ANYTHING...finally after about a minute and some swerving I finally found it so i decided to fix that little lighting problem.....

Replaced ugly 192 bulbs with 5 SMT LED Cluster...





Driving with maplights on...WAY Brighter!!! And a nice pure white look...



No flash, Just way overexposed look at the Driver side map light and foot well ... with the passenger side off..



Both Sides lit....




Passenger side map light and footwell lit...


The pictures are overexposed so the red LEDs are actually a little more spread out and don't look exactly like that in person...

This was a semi annoying mod ...The thing that took the longest was figuring out how to run the wires from the rear view mirror so that the footwell lights turn on whenever the maplights turn on...and fade out with them also....Figuring out where to put the LEDs was also very tedious...there isn't ANY room under either side...and working down there is even worse....

In the end...Maplights work great and left side footwell turns on when left maplight is on and rightside footwell is on when rightside map light is on...It really makes a HUGE difference when looking for things on the floor or just wanting more light in the car....
