Much better pics. I live in CA so finding your car wont be a problem but why would i waste my time when there is nothing on your car that I would want (maybe just the door leds). You deleted the comment before i read it but talking about guns through a computer screen is not very threatening. I was giving you a heads up as my sig was obviously hinting you. I can understand why member like KCMAXX find your threads very interesting.

aaaaare you agreeing with me?

I was giving you a heads up as my sig was obviously hinting you.
sig, as in sig sauer? and what is "hinting" me, it isn't obvious enough lol?

I can understand why member like KCMAXX find your threads very interesting.

No stealing is not an option and is against my ethics. I was trying to say I am happy with my current set up and wouldnt need anything from your car interest me. I take my comment back about those blue LED cause i rather go with pure white. You need to read carefully and stop getting all butt hurt at everyone's comments. Before i clicked submit reply on my initial post i was reconsidering the signature option but i figured you would benefit from my sig. you could of done what i've done and use paint to cover up your plate versus you removing your plate. People would be more willing to help you if you would just chill.

im as cool as a cucumber, your probably like me and explain things half way because you think others should catch onto your thoughts. I just wasn't able this time, still a little confused with the signature thing, but i think i get you now.

i read very carefully, your post was very confusing. i even broke it down to make sense of it. take a step back and re-read what you posted an look at it from another vantage.

and i think white leds on the doors would look sick. you should do it. the mod was very easy, only took about 10 min per door. the led pack come with two strips for 11.95, i did 2 on each front door, and 1 on each back door.

you don't like the front led strips? what would you do different?

also do you have a pic of how you painted your plates? im interested to see what you did.

I like the door lights, good mod.

STFU!!!!!! kcmaxx, all i see is you repeatedly harassing 20eggs. YOU provoking and causing drama from a forum member is MORE annoying then 20eggs overreacting.

i like your "thread troll" post. but you need to CHILL TFO!! if you knew anything about forums they are filled with idiots like kcmaxx. don't respond to them and save us all the headach.

WTF is going on here? Who are these new guys spouting crap and being so thin skinned? How can 20eggs confuse someone saying "my sig was giving you a hint" to think he's talking about a gun? C'mon, really? This forum has devolved into a bunch of winers. KC has always had a sharp wit with his observations but they are never meanspirited and most often they are quite funny. You guys need to back away from the keyboard and think before you respond.

As to the new setup of the leds, I like the straighter look. I was thinking of buying a set of leds that were about 5.5 inches long and trying them out for ***** and giggles. Maybe they would be better if they were closer to the license plate.

not in sync with all the forum jargon yet. i don't know what a "sig" or signature is, still... could you explain?

i was also thinking closer would be better when i first started the mod and with the sticky surface on the back of the strips i tried it out. it didn't look very good, like it was out of place. also tried wrapping them around the fenders more, same thing, its hard to visualize until you do it.

i originally bought the 6 inch leds for the front fender, but they were too small, the front has to wrap around the side a little to accommodate the side view of the head lights.

you should go for it man! i really like the look of the Maxima's head lights with the strips and i'd be cool to see more people do this mod, imo it looks better than a lot of the cars out there that come with them factory.

revvinMAX, thanks for the input but the childish crap is over, responses like his are to be 100% ignored from here on out. if i don't give him what he wants he'll probably get bored of trolling my threads. and if he doesn't he'll just be talking to himself. badblackmax I will give it to you, a lot of KC's remarks had me laughing more then i was irritated. but the funs over, i know you all will miss the humorous bashing <---- that's a joke

I ordered the LED 64 stack Ultrabrights for the DRLs and the cornering lights....I already have the blue LEDs for the License plate lights...they look great. Saw the Ultrabrights on a friends Max and it was very cool! Also you can now install an extra set of Light blue ultrabright long rectangular fogs in the 04 - 06 Max...looking at that next....

Not a fan of the Strip lights. Like someone else said leave it for Audi's the Maxima deserves better treatment. Open them *****es up and go black housing add V-LEDs Switch back turn signal LED's and tint the bumper directional lighting. Maybe even add 3000K HIDs to the inner fog lights.

Maxima 2004 J31. Having a problem installing LED lights along the bottom of the door. Connect a strip of LED's temporary to 'door' light to see the effect etc. Started to install more permanently and the light stopped working including the door light. The door light works OK on the passenger door.All the lights in the car work. Is there a fuse for each door light?
ANY HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I'm pretty sure your wires are crossed. did you use electrical tape when you spliced? possibly shutting the door jiggled them loose?

lol..... i think he's referring to the chance that i offend someone, who happens to have a friend in law enforcement, who decides to break the law, become an accessory in a crime by looking me up for personal reasons and then giving the information to a civilian, and then that civilian makes the trip to my home, and then decides to do something violent.

all i gotta say is I am a proud American US Constitution 2nd amendment exercising individual, God bless the land of the free! Yeehaw!! however, the chances of anyone from the .org falling into this string of events is incredibly rare. i'd more likely encounter a moose in a mini cooper...

and to add, my ex drives a mini cooper, so chances of running into a moose driving one are more likely than you'd expect!
