I put the part in red and i use the same LED's for the door and dash.

I had a C5 member here this past two days, We did for him a Door Abl all the way around the door and on the dash, some footwell lighting and door sill lighting, All in a 2010 Synergy green 1LT and his VIN was in the 9215000 range, He will post some pics soon But may be a week or more till he gets home, We did all matching Green LED's and the car came out looking so good.

So its up to you how you want to do it the door had the Blue LED's in them But not any more.

Man that really looks nice. Can't get much better than that. Excellent work as always from the master craftsman.

Gene Culley · 02-21-2011, 10:29 PM

The green looks awesome!

Ofer, do you have info on the cupholder lighting mod? Harness maybe? While I have my complete console out to be painted, I might as well do it!

I thought of something different when playing around with my trim piece and an ABL LED to get the whole panel to glow, might not work at all so I have to wait the pipe and see, but theoretically it makes sense.
Anyways i need to get a pic of what i want to do.
SO you guys all know how the panel is painted from the back, leaving what looks like a 5mm clear edge on the front of the panel. Well i took the LED, and directed it through the side of the panel to go trough the front of the panel, what i got was a glowing panel. Looked great, definitly would be distracting but worth it lol
So then i though to myself, how the hell could I do this and actually make it work and look clean? Came up with a plan however its not clean and only works in theory, need to test it out. Anyways else have an idea or anything that might work to do this?
I was thinking of running the light tube in front of the panel to the top and try to hide it somehow.

forgive my grammer, havnt slept yet

anglwngss · 02-25-2011, 07:58 AM

Are you wanting your whole panel to glow, kinda like this?

If it was a soft glow, i think it'd look kinda neat, as long as it wasn't blinding or something like that.

TJ91 · 02-25-2011, 06:28 PM

ill get a pic in a bit when i start her up in an hour

I just got my order and there is one connector set? ARGH! I have a late model, don't I need 3 more of these? Is there a female connector in the car for these to split into 3 (1 LED on L side and 2 LEDS on R)?

Can someone please do a DIY on the wiring for late models?
