Installed full dash and doors ABL, foot lighting with custom cup holder switch plate! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

CamaroC-17 · 03-21-2011, 05:37 PM

I have been on a roll! So many mods so far this year. I installed some ABL and floor lighting! Also got this custom switch plate that goes in the rear cup holder from emblempros.com So the ABL, foot lighting, exhaust cut outs all have their own switch. Plus two extra for future stuff. What do you guys think?
EDIT: The floor lighting was installed with the purpose of just lighting up the floor if me or a passenger dropped something. I do not have them on when driving. To much like a rice burner or tuner. Just thought it looked better than a normal white light.
NOTE: I'm not sure why the ABL looks choppy (breaks in the lighting). It doesn't look like that in person.
