Quick n Easy Mod! LED's in the A/C vents!

So i just finished putting leds in my ac vents. i know a lot of people put leds in there truck n all that but out of all the rides that have interior leds for flare i havent really seen anyone put em in the ac vents. this took me about an hour to do! im going to add led's in the footwells for the fronts, under the front seats for the rears, and on the outside of my door handles.

LEMME KNOW WHATCHA THINK! HATERS, DONT BOTHER TO COMMENT.

What temp do you have the heat on, lol. Cool Mod and I like it. It would be cool if you had the leds like the Ford ambient light system and you could choose from 7 different colors

You should install BLUE LED's to come on when the A/C is on and the RED LED's to come on when the heater is on... Now that would be pretty bitchn'...

Haha, I was thinking the same thing.

Looks good just as it is though! What do you have mounted on the left side of your head unit there (where the 4x4 knob is)?

Thanks! my brother has a 09 charger that he did all blue leds so i wanted to have the evil version with red lol I ran two wires down the length of the dashboard, then i tapped in each wire from the leds into the wires and wallah! im going to wire them up to a switch, but since i dont have the switches i ordered i hooked it up to the battery to take these pics. But the end of the wire with all the LEDs in it will go under the drivers side sill plate and be connectted to the dome light power source!

Thanks man! oh i have the 2WD XLT, so instead of a knob they give u a nifty little coin holder slot that u never use lol so iinstalled my parrot bluetooth system in it so it sits flush in the holder, so it looks like its made as a pedistal for it.
