Hooked up a Sound interface to my LED crusing lights.... here's the result:



The only downside is since the addition of my headers, the interface picks up the exhaust noise too

I'm not sure about that, is your car a show car? Or do you drive it a lot? If you drive it a lot, how does that effect your night vision? How do you shut it off, or is it always on?

Personally, it's a bit much, and goes into the "ricer" category, but I do think it's kind of a cool gimick. Not my thing, but I think it definitely looks cool. I'd be jealous of it at a show!

Oh there's a shut of switch. The exhaust throws off the sound interface while driving so I switch it to a steady glow. The constant blue glow actually helps maintain my vision at night.

Ah, that's not too bad than. Still not my cup of tea, but if you can turn it off, I think it's pretty cool. Definitely something to help drop the panties!

you should rate your system in lumens, not watts.
