Custom Map/Dome Light - more light in cabin
Custom Map/Dome Light - more light in cabin
So I redid my LED map lights today and I took a bunch of pictures so I figured I'd share. Its sorta self explanatory but if anyone wants more info let me know. Got the idea from a friend, basically its just adding dome lights (by tapping dome wires in the A pillar) into the map light area while keeping the map light itself functional(I don't know of leds that are brighter than the map lights)
The squares are made with 5 mm blue leds wired in series, I used cardboard instead of pcb or whatever the legit thing to use is
Here are the pics:


Close up:


^I think one of the leds was defective and I didnt wanna go through the process of figuring it out so I just threw a 4 led array over it


With map lights on

Door open, map lights off

Door open with map lights on

Just the map lights - sleeeeper!! lawl
