LED cupholder mod

so after seeing Redrum29's post I decided to tackle the mod myself.
It was actually really easy and took about an hour.
I would have like to solder the wires together since the LED wires are pretty small but I think they should hold up fine with the wire connectors i used.



They leds barley stick out at all so there wont be a problem getting in the way of larger bottles


A few drops of crazy glue to hold the clip and led into place!

 

Props my man, you did it up nice. you should seriously consider the back vent it is nice to have it, plus i want to see it in blue

Edit: Now i see the size you used nice job, this is how i did it on my roommate's 04 with the red, i'll have to post pictures later.

 

Thanks!
when i bought them I had planned on doing it but after seeing yours I decided to do the floorboards instead. haha
I might have to order some more though

I want to do the cupholders in all 4 doors as well

 

Ok now that is the best idea i've heard in ages, that would entail more research for me during finals week though>>> I NEED TO DO THIS.

 

haha, If I get around to it before you do I'll let you know

 

Ya that would be legit. If I wasn't so lazy I would rip the door panels off and do it myself, but if I did this then it would mean doing the back doors too. That my friend would require alot of time and beer, both of which i do not seem to have right now... Dude we have to figure this out to do a write up, it would def be sick.

 

haha Yea I've been contemplating doing it for awhile but im to lazy...Im glad I saw your write up cause it motivated me to get mine done! Ill probably try and takle it this summer once I move back home

 

Well doing the doors like how I think you are saying is new to me. I guess I would have to do this at my parents house too since school is over in a week and I need an internship around the bay area somewhere. But seriously as soon as Oznium ships my backordered items I will seriously consider this. I need to find that link for taking off the door panels too.

OK this is Mr.Marv's audio write up with a detailed write up, I think this can be done as soon as i figure out where to wire through the doors. If i take the panels off though I know I have to dampen the doors with some extra peel n seal making this a long day.

 

I just plan on running the wires through the rubber wire looms that are already there. and then drilling little holes and mounting the leds just like I did on the cup holders, but ill mount it towards the front firing backwards. I wanna do it to all 4 of them so everyone gets to enjoy the sweet little blue light

 

well once you find out where you are gonna mount the light in there tell me... the resistor and led posts get in the way when i want to fit them in a spot that is too shallow. How are you going to get this? I was almost thinking of doing thin led strips on the inside of the pocket facing the inside of the door. this would be a little more expensive though, not so cheap free mods section material.
