bed lights revisited

finally got my bed lights installed and wanted to share my pics. i must thank jefferson for his writeup on how to wire bed lights which helped me in my project.

these are pacer flexible led lights that i picked up off of summit racing. i picked them because they are usually used as accent lighting under a vehicle or in the fender wells. so i figured they should be durrable. i used a waterproof toggle switch which i mounted upsidedown in the driver's side pocket. you can see it here.



here you can see the lights from the back. fairly low profile.


and of course here is what they look like at night. the do a great job of illuminating the bed.


i ran a lead to the fuse box under the hood where i found the main hot wire coming into the box with a nut on it. snapped the cover back on and done!

Nice job clean

 

Would you post the Summit part number?

Thanks

 

That looks real good, but what ya shoulda done is got some christmas lights and ran them off your 120 conec, that woulda been some real good redneck engineering.

 

no problem

Sweet. Hope to do this as well

 

are the led's waterproof as well or do you have a cover you use on your truck?

 

supposed to be. so far they've been through an automatic car wash, rain, snow and ice. still going strong.

 

good to know, i have plans for the same thing when it gets warmer.

 

PM'd you

 

Dont see it...

 

huh?

 

right back at ya

 

thanks for the comments. i thought that last one made a neat looking picture. easy project for someone like me with little knowhow.

 

can u be more specific how you wired?
