KiKaZz74 Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 Ok what's a good website to get really cheap leds from? I only need them in blue and adhesive back. My plan is to put some under dash for foot wells. Some under amp to light it and accent it. And maybe some down in ports. I don't want them to be very bright but bright enough to see things. Maybe 4-5ft total. And what would I need to wire it up?

Agreene Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 http://ledglow.com/ awesome kits they use usb cables to connect the lights together easy and decently priced
Broke_Audio_Addict Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 x2 on the ledglow kits. I love mine! I have had it installed for more than 2 years on my truck and had no problems with them at all. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

ThreehundredC Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 get them on ebay get mine right from hongkong 30 feet for 14 dollars
Need Bass Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 These are for RC cars, but they're pretty much what you're looking for, with the adhesive back and 2 wires for + and - hookup. I forget what the price is for shipping but the LEDs themselves are cheap. For reference, a 60 bulb strip is 1 meter = 3.28084 feet. (scroll down lower to find what you want, the top half is specifically for RCs) http://www.hobbypartz.com/ledlights.html My Build Log Heros get remembered, but legends never die.

WastedTalent Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 I bought some few weeks ago from... lyuxun or some crap like that on ebay. 2 strips for $7. have yet to install so can't say if good or bad, but good price and was quick on shipping. and come with the 3M tape on back (going to use zip ties along with that) Sheena = pedobear

I'd run to my amp for the power and ground. And any way I can control brightness?

WastedTalent Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 Yes on the speaker wire. I mean, doesn't require a whole lot of power so don't need 1/0 lol. Think 16 gauge is a lil big for the power needs but, that'll do. As for brightness, depends on what you get. With that link, Idk. They may offer some that vary the brightness. But most, no. You are stuck with what you got. Some do have that option though. Sheena = pedobear
