Thumbs up Light up your CupHolder!

Here is a pic of a small custom project that I came across a few weeks ago. I know I might not be the first one to do this because I've read about it before in other posts. I hardly have a chance to keep up with everyone and their mods but thought it would be cool to show what I did. So if you like it, Cool! If not, oh well

These blue LED lights were purchased at Pepboys for I think $7.99 and I installed them with on a separate switch. The pic isn't great because my camera wouldn't take it without the flash but you get the idea.......

I simply got seperate power through a switch (seperate wire to battery and ground). This way, I can have them on even when my truck is parked and I have my doors open because I have blue neon lights in the feet area too.
