vent lights

SUPERMANSFOCUS · Oct 15, 2002

i drive a lot at night it is awfully dark in the cabin of my focus. What i would like to do is put some kind of lighting in the dashboard vents.
What i want to do is acheive the same green lighting as the stereo, and i want it so you do not see the actual "lights" but i want to acheive that "glow" of green coming from the vents. also to hook up so lights turn on and operate like all the other lights (if i could possibly hook the existing dimmer up also that would be great)

if any body has any advice on: 1.)how to install
2.)what kind of
lights to use.
3.)where to get
all that is
needed.
thank you

I know that Yellowlightning sells hotwirez, they are a small wire that come as long as u want and when hooked up to power they glow what ever color u got, email him or pm him for more info

I heard this idea from someone that just joined the Mid-west team about a month back and was curious about this also. I wasnt sure about using the wires cause I figured they would not give off enough glow. Neons would probably work but can they take the heat when it comes winter time?

I have LEDs in my vents!
it looks great...I think they will give you the "glow" you are looking for.
I will post picks as soon as i can.

I have been planning on doing a full LED treatment to the interior of my car. I think LEDs would definitely be the way to go for what you want to do.

THANK YOU SO MUCH I AM GOING TO ORDER THEM FRIDAY.
ONE QUESTION THOUGH, WHAT DID YOU USE FOR THE POWER SOURCE, I MEAN WHAT IS THE EASIST (CIG LIGHTER OR WHAT?)

my light doesn't work either. And nothing will stay in the plug. the lighter doesn't work anymore and I can't put any other plugs in there. I'll check my fuses the next time I have to take off the whole bottom panel. the fuse panel sits too far back to get to.
