HELLO!
I AM GOING TO BE PURCHASING AAC FOOTWELL AMBIENT LIGHTING.
CAN ANYONE GIVE ME STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS TO INSTALLING THEM.

THANKS!!

First, please turn off caps lock. Second, yes I can help you. But I need to know how you want them to turn on. If you want them to turn on with your dome light see HERE. If you want it to hook up to your ambient lighting see HERE. Now if you want it just wired to a 12v source, see HERE.

Now,

I have no problem helping people out, but come on. Use the search button.

I would install the GM Footwell and Cupholder Lighting Kit instead. Easy to install, looks and works Great.

But it is $400, Rather spend my $20 and use the rest on an intake or something else.

I agree as I did mine myself and it cost me about $50 since I used 18 SMD LEDs for the fronts.

You can get the ABL colored LED strips from AAC for about $50, that and the GM kit really isn't that nice.

It sure looks nice at night, plus the automatic mode is cool when it cycles through the 4different settings.

Hey stig, nice car carrier, but I don't get it? You drive your pretty pretty Camaro in a car trailer instead of behind the wheel with the rubber on the asphalt? I mean I guess it would save your cars odometer and keep everything "newer" looking and all but I wouldn't get much pleasure towing my pretty baby Camaro around behind my truck, I mean if you just wanted a car in a box why not save $30,000.00 and buy a $5.00 hot wheels and keep it mint in its package, I hear the special ones really appreciate in value??? I have a truck and an suv too but when the weathers nice I want to feel them ponies raring to run with the rubber on the road, not on the floor of a car trailer........
