Clarkey Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Hi all, Would like to fit some interior lighting ... need some ideas. I've got a Red JSpec Supe ... standard black & cloth interior. I'm quite keen on some LED interior lights. Maybe for where the yer legs go ... driver & passenger. Also maybe something to light up the rear spoiler section from inside of the car - would be nice. But what colours do you think go with a Red car ... except Red Would like some colour contrast. Not keen on getting my dials done ... can't afford the £150 + fitting of the stuff. And also does anyone know or is ... who can fit & supply these things. I've seen them from Miami or Litewave ... but was wondering if could get them from the fitter ... would save abit of hassle. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey Posted July 2, 2004 Author Share Posted July 2, 2004 Yeah - I've sent him a PM. What LED colours from the outside go with Red ? I've near had a Bling car so - I dunno what's a good choice. Red car - white LED strip behind the rear seats ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castle Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Best accent colour with Silver?? got to do me calipers as well as under the engine bay and the lit interior:thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightwave Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Guys who've done interior lights - can we get some pics up? I'm doing mine this weekend (if I have time) so I'll post some pics if I can. Green lights - black car. With a red car - try yellow. I think they'd look hot. Up to you, but don't forget pics! And with a silver car, blue would look pretty hot. Keeps that ice cool theme going - I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightwave Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 BTW, with regard to wiring - it's easy really. I'm wiring in Fusion neons, which come each with a 1A fuse. I've run a +ve red from the battery through the bulkhead above the pedals and a -ve from anywhere (went for an existing ground connection under the bonnet through the same hole as the +ve). Take those into the car, get an in-line fuse holder and 4A or 5A fuse from Camberley Auto Factors or Halfrauds or wherever, wire that into the +ve and wire up your parallel circuit. I'm going for four 8" neon tubes in the front foot well. Figured it'd be best to go for light in front and behind your legs. And I prefer the glow of neon to LED. The Fusion neons come with self-tapping screws and adhesive backing. They won't be going anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey Posted July 3, 2004 Author Share Posted July 3, 2004 I did think about red Paul .. but as you know my car is red anyway, so I wanted abit of contrast. I'm after some nice chrome door sills ... prefer ones that say "Supra" on it. Do you stock them ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
