Interior/Mood LED Help
So I'm looking at getting some of these pre-wired LEDs from Oznium but have a few questions for any of you that have experience with these.
How should I go about powering them?
I plan on doing a few under each seat along with under the dash and possibly a few in the doors. I want to have them all connected to a switch that I'll mount on my dash alongside my sub switch when I get that finished. Is it possible to wire all the LEDs together then connect them to the switch and the fuse then pull power outta the fuse box? Or do I need to power each individually?
What size fuse should I use? I'm thinking that by the end of it I want to have 10-20 LEDs on each switch/fuse.
As for color, I'm still undecided, I'm thinking a set of blue and a set of green. Have two switches, one for blue and one for green, that way I could have either blue, green, or both at a time.
What's the best way to get the door panels off in these cars? If it's easy enough to get the panels off I might end up doing the suede that I wanted to do last summer.

[align=center]Garrett, Check Out below site.[/align][align=center]Hope it helps, `Space[/align][align=center][/URL]
This kit is for people who want even more Brightness than the single kit! Each kit comes with everything to illuminate one footwell or other section of the car...If your doing both footwells you will need two kits.
Best part of this product is that it runs off of 12vdc. Thats the same power your lights are running off right now! So you can just tap right into any 12volt source on your car. (They are everywhere: Your excisting lights now, lighter adapter, even your radio is 12volts)
*All of our automotive kits now include a specialized mounting kit complete with all the hardware necessary for the simple installation.
Available bulb sizes are 6" and 12"[/align][align=center][align=center][:-]Click `it [:-][/align][/align][align=center]http://www.elwirecheap.com/dualinterior.html[/align]

RE: Interior/Mood LED Help
i'm no electrical genius but at one point in time i had 4 neon strips running on a single toggle switch i bought from an auto parts store. i just ran 12v power to it and grounded it. flip the switch, neon's on. i probably did it wrong but it worked for as long as i owned the car
