Are you having trouble installing LED under car lights onto your vehicle? Or maybe your just not sure where all the wires for the under car lights go? Let us show you all the “in’s & out’s” of this type of installation - which i should mention, is designed with the “Novice” in mind.
The first thing you’ll need to do when installing LED under car lights, is to find where you want to mount the led tubes. Be sure to keep their location in mind while doing the wiring part of the installation, so you can allow for the correct lengths of the wires.

Concrete Barriers along freeways need sensors in them. When the barriers are hit the sensors relay this information to the nearest Freeway call box and indicate a strike. Then the Call Box will alert authorities and send for appropriate first responder help. 42,000 people die a year on our highways, bet we can save a thousand per year with this secret device. |
It is ideal to mount the led tubes so as they are centered between the overall length of the vehicle for optimal appearance. Tubes should be positioned on the chassis of the vehicle so as they are not visible. Visible led car lights are prohibited by law in most cities.
You’ll now need to disconnect the battery before starting on the installation and the drilling of holes. Do this by disconnecting the negative battery cable. This led under car lights installation involves disconnecting the battery first and foremost for safety reasons, and so you don’t “short-out” your car wiring.
The easiest way to mount the LED tubes is to start the screws in the brackets first,(supplied in kit) then holding the bracket in place, insert and tighten the screws into the holes. Make sure that the wires coming from the *Side* tubes are facing the front of the vehicle. It’s best to tighten the screws just enough to hold the bracket in place, then go back after once you almost finished and individually tighten each one until it seats firmly.
You should have a distribution block in your under car lights kit, find a good location for the block on a flat surface in the engine compartment away from any heat or moving parts.
Next you will need to determine a location inside your vehicle to mount the digital control panel. You want it to be in a location where you can easily access all its buttons and functions while your sitting in the vehicle.

All cars currently being built use this system and today we will go into detail to show you what it is, how it works, and if it inhibits or promotes modifications to your car. |
The LED under car lights distribution block and the control panel can be hooked together using the ribbon wire that comes with your particular kit. The wire needs to be pushed through a hole in the firewall and plugged into the “input” on the side of distribution block. For those of you who may be a bit confused as to what the firewall is, it’s the wall that divides the engine compartment and the interior of the vehicle. Be careful when you do this because the wire adaptors are fragile.
The power wire on the digital control panel can be connected directly to the Positive side of the car battery or to any 12V power wire under the dashboard. There will also be an “Earth wire” or Negative ground wire coming out from the control panel that will need to be securely screwed to the chassis of the vehicle or to any “Earth wire” to complete the power circuit.
Finally, to be able to operate your LED under car lights, the included switch and fuse should be connected between the control panel and the power supply. All you need to do now is to plug all the LED tubes into the Distribution block, complete any additional wiring according to your kit instructions and then you’ll be all set to show em off!

The fear of getting caught speeding is common to all drivers, even the ones that drive extremely slow have reported that they fear to be seen speeding by the police. It is no wonder that most people are afraid to get caught, getting caught usually means that you will have to pay the price, sometimes money and sometimes it is much, much worst. First we must examine the reason for speeding, although this is an article about radar detectors there is some sense to keeping a speed limit, maybe you are young at this moment, but one day you will have a family, and you wouldn't want your kids to play outside and get hit by a speeding car, maybe you love racing but do not yet understand that racing requires skill and more importantly – a track. So there is a sense in keeping a limit to the speed in which people drive. |
