Playin with L.E.D.s

[01SS]

Got bored and decided to add some L.E.D.s to the car. I know its all ricer-esque but I think it looks kinda neat. These are the best photos I could get so far. It's kind of hard to get the lighting right so the car looks good and the lights are bright still.

Sorry just saw there were a couple of questions here. The L.E.D.s are just the 4 pack set from auto zone each light is about the size of a mini cigarette lighter. I have 2 in the scoop and one each for the holes in grill. The 4 pack was like 20 bucks and the switch i got was 5 bucks. I did drill a small hole in the air path an the hood to run the wires. I did it on bottom right corner of air path and then realized the battery is on the left side of the car so that is best side to do it.(brain fart that day) Then i ran the wires down to bottom corner of the hood. It is currently taped to the hood till I get some thin wire loom and sticky back zip-ty mounts just to clean it up. My engine has no show so no reason to have the hood up. Ran the wires to battery and a switch inside the car which I mounted in the little cubby hole next to the cig-lighter in front of shifter. Also put same style switch in there that day for head-unit/TV ground switch.

Oh yea the lights have sticky backs to them no good in the rough innards of the scoop so I had to epoxy them up so they would light downward in scoop.
