Just started my Engine cover LED project!
so ,Just started on my project and as you can see to me It's amazing I love It, it definitely gave me more ideas with more lights to come now that I've learned how to make the connection work. it took awhile for me to figure out what goes to what watched a lot of YouTube videos and then finally figured it out as you can see in the pictures. BUT just when I thought that I was just about done the unthinkable happens and yes I cut the wire so I had to re make the connections in order for them to go ahead and light up. One side did not want to light up anymore but if anything that's okay for me because now I have a disconnection anytime I would like to go ahead and remove the cover and wash it other than that enjoy
