Interior Lighting

<< < (2/2)

Ohhh those LED strips are just the ticket to sort out the lighting in the back of my landy for when i'm camping.

im gonna do something with ours when i can be bothered. it doesnt even have an interior light anymore at the moment ;)

They age way to rapidly in a car. I have two in the boot of the Audi and they last a year at most and need to be changed. Havent worked out exactly why just yet, I suspect its just poor build qulaity.

Just paid £4 for 50 Hyperbright white LEDs for a project so I may use the leftovers for something similar.

AbyssDJ:
oh well, there goes that idea then :P anyone wanna buy some led neon flex?  :lol:
