Footwell Lights That Don’t Suck

Got the fronts in. Had a bit of numbness behind the eyes, got it all wired up in the A pillar and tucked in, when I thought it wasn't working, so I went in and redid it. Turns out it was just me not closing and opening the door again to trigger it.

Fish tape comes in handy also.

Still gotta put the backs in and properly secure all the wiring, but it looks pretty good so far, bright and dim.

 

I should have stated that. Backorder, but a few folks have started receiving them already.

 

@TheCochese Let me know if you have plans for those! I'll buy them if that's an option.

 

Have to work it out with Cotton, I didn't ask to keep these. If y'all can work it out where he sends a sticker with your shipping info on it, maybe I could direct ship it instead of having to send it back.

I did use the sticky pads on them, but I'm going to try to reuse them and send the fresh ones back.

 

Okay, don't want to complicate you & @memario1214 transaction. I'll pay whomever wants the money! And don't stress over the tape. I can work that out. Don't short yourself on the new ones. I don't need them asap, either.

 

You're too quik. I was gonna go with...

 

So many Cottons, but only one Colton. Or something like that.

 

In my defense, my eyes don’t work as well as they used to.

 

I'm turning 45 on Friday, so I get it. I have my kids read small writing on things or use my phone to magnify it.

 

Hah! I get that. I’m starting to struggle reading the novella they manage to print on medicine bottles these days.

 

@memario1214
I must be blind. Do you sell the rear kit? TIA.

 

I did opt out for the rear when I preordered. And now I want to add the rear. I just can’t find a separate listings for the rear.

 

This is a question that likely comes off as critical but isn’t supposed to.

Is an occasional dim/flicker normal? I notice sometimes if my revs drop I’ll get the occasional momentary flicker (most noticeable in stop and go traffic). My guess is the sensitivity to battery voltage rather than something related to the kit.

I do have the PWM set high and should likely dim it.

I’m eager to get the back set in but I have to pull the kids’ car seats so it’s more of an undertaking than some.

EDIT for those reading, it’s a braking issue. Troubleshooting TBD.

 

I've seen that on another vehicle and we think it might be a ground inside of the PWM (we haven't received that PWM back to analyze just yet). Contact who you ordered through and have them get in touch with VLEDS warranty; we can see if it's a similar issue and send out a new PWM if you've done some of the basic troubleshooting. I'll shoot you a PM with some instructions on how to test if it's the same issue I've seen.

 

Should I start a poll? I’ll have to remove an A pillar from ‘she who shall not be named’ to install. The big question is do I put it back on or return to stock. I think I’ve used it roughly 3 times in the year plus I’ve had it in. It satisfies my ocd regarding symmetry though.

 

If you have a working setup that fits and works well, I think there’d be a market for it. I still want one despite all the BS that comes with it.

Heck if yours fits and looks OEM I’d probably buy it off you!

 

It’s weird. I pulled mine off and it went back on super easy. I do have a bit longer bolts tho, because I have the ultra guage mounted on mine.
