AAC ABL Footwell & Backseat Led lights Installed

Here is my weekend mods . I bought 2 sets of AAC ABL color footwells for the front and back seat areas . After thinking that NO one every rides in the back and really couldn't if they wanted to i decided to add the Abl leds to the upper part of the headliner . It's hid pretty good and I ran the wires all the way around the side of the headliner to the pass door , down to the side kick panel and up the the front footwells and tied them in there .

I really like the look and now i can see whats in the back seat at night ! :woot: Got lots of WOW'S last night at the hang out . I like being the 1st to do things around here !

Next up --- ABl Door Handles and Cup Holder leds


Edit .....Ok i have added some close up pics of where i placed the over head leds .
I used a 15" ABL strip (1) and placed it as close the the liner as possible . As you can see if you climb in the backseat and look up that there is a black strip on the window that is part of the rear defrost material on the window . This is where i placed the strip
. That way you can't see it from the outside or even in the car unless your inside and setting in the back seat.
Then you can see where i ran the wire around the pass side of the head liner molding .Tucking it as i went .
Sorry for the pics but i'm 6' 4' and its pretty tight back there to lay down and get these pics .
Hope this helps

That's what I plan on doing next. Did you use 2 of the LED stripes in the back or just 1?

I did something similar, but I ran a LED to the sides of back. So there's one up high and one down in the back footwells. I will post some photos later.

I'll do that .. It's exactly in the middle on the back glass as close to the head liner as possible . You could even tuck it in further than i did but it's fine where it is for me . I'll try to post pics by tomorrow . Thanks

I'm sure you will come up with something . The only other thing i have seen on here was AAC did it but they added it to the upper part of the back seat . I went my own way .

I see what you did BEE, PERFECT. Thank - you. I can certainly make this happen with the strips that I have. This will do exactly what I was looking to do.

Thank - you............

Looks good and gives some much needed light to the back seat area. Good job.

That looks way better than having it under the seat! Good job, looks sweet. I have ABL footwells also and love them. This is a great touch.
