Interior Dash Lights

Well 5 hours, 3 switches, 4 fuses, a bunch of wire, and some smoke later, I got the lights installed in my truck. Figured out that easiest route is usually the best one too. What do you guys think?

What do you intend to use them for? Are you having them on while driving or are they coming on with dome lights for getting in and out of the truck?

Can you take a picture of them on but without camera flash or dome lights on? I want to get an idea of how bright they are. You don't want them too bright while driving. It's distracting.

I like the idea, but if I can see the lightbars themselves- you need to hide them better. Good idea, though

Bluesteel, I have them on while I drive. I will try and get a picture this weekend without the flash and dome lights on. if you have window tint on your windows you reflect somewhat off the windows.
Raptor: There really isn't anything else to stick them too, they are the LED stips you buy at an auto parts store and have the 3M tape on the back, I looked for a while but couldn't find anywhere else that was flat and would work well. Btw I didn't want to tear my truck apart too much.
