    I've been planning to have one installed in my car. Just don't have the time to have it done. I won't DIY it though. hehehe

    I have warm white neons on my trunk and plan to transfer it under my dashboard and put warm white LEDs in my trunk to replace the neons.

    My plan is to have it activated when the doors are open, but there would also be a switch to override it.

    Thanks glntVR.

    Anybody who knows where to buy a printed circuit board (PCB) for this project? Suking Deeco can provide the ICs, LEDs and capacitors though. Anyone tried this project DIY style?

    I just use single contact bulbs for my footwell lamps. Cheap but does the job. Wired to the door sensor for automatic operation. Just had jameson put them in. About half an hour start to finish.
