hello peps, ok i posted earlier, i purchased some 1/4 in weather stripping, put i along the trim, and raise or lowered it in areas. This is to hold the rod and in turn, the rod create to proper gap needed. hope this help, kinda crappy vid, but oh well

wow man thanks for the vid That is EXTREMELY HELPFUL!!
Thanks alot!
Now, anyone know how to get the no drill method to reach the entire panel? Seems like its about an inch short in majority of the pics I see.

[TJ91]

Tag, how did you get it to run the entire lenght, any tricks?
The pics you posted on page 8 looks great

[overhaulengines]

Hello, I pretty sure tag did his a long time ago n drilled his. The no drill sand method he is talking about he did on a few others cars.

Not sure how he got it to run all the way across, will post up anoher pic to show why im confused in a second

[TJ91]

Im not sure how the light reaches the end. Ive played with the light just to see how it would look, I think I have an idea on how to get it to direct some light to the edges of the panel


Im going to try to just use the tubing to mount the led to the pipe but not use electrical tape to focus the led. Not sure if you'll understand what I mean but ill take pics this coming weekend when I get the light pipe

[overhaulengines]

Hello bro, I might b wrong, but the reason some have light all the way is the have drilled a hole and ran the tube all the way.
As far as leaving tape off, If u take off the tape the led will send light out of the edges and corners. From what I see the tape is necessary at least doing it with the no drill method.

Lupe,

Great video man! Did you use the same method on the drivers side as well?

I'm curious to see how others have been getting the drivers side to play nice.
