EL wire for ABL
Anyone used EL wire across the dash? I know it's not suppose to have the same life expectancy and stay as bright as LED's, but for 10 ft and inverter on Ebay you spend only $10. and you can shorten the length all you want. depending on whom you go with you can even order it a certain length with a connector for the inverter already installed. and it's usually 1.30-1.60 per foot.
If anyone has used it can you please post up pictures. I would love to see how it looks. |

This purple wire is the ABL wire. There's one on the driver's side and one on the passenger side.

cool. I've got two weeks before I can actually see this in person. but spending less than $80 to get this up and running is outstanding. that's even buying some of the equipment. lol.
