Default footwell leds

I finally got my car back together today It's about time.. Everything went smooth so I had time to mount these led floods from oznium. $15 each but they deliver light!@! Mounted them in the plastic hush panel below the dash on each side and wired them into the factory wires. These are the buggers I'm talking about

Looks great... ...I can vouch for those Oznium.com LED flood lights, they are some bright little suckers... ...the LED spots are even brighter but have a lot narrower beam....:yesnod

Looks good!! I've been thinking about putting an LED between my exhausts for grins -- think I might have to make this my next mod..

Is there any way to wire them up to dim when you dim the dash lights? or are they setup to only come on when you open the door, etc

Default footwell leds

I did mount only I on each side. Anymore would be overkill.They are simply wired in to the stock footwell lighting. Never thought of wiring them into the dimmer circuit.One thing I've wondered about is the effect on the longevity of the leds with them dimmed down. I know they are meant to work at a certain voltage level. What happens if the voltage is lowered? I know they probably arent affected untill you get down to their operating voltage level.I'm probably going to go with these in the trunk and maybe underhood.Next project is to light up my red Halltech stinger intake.You are correct tstar, I need to learn to link like you have. This is so easy even a cave man could do it.So, I know that notnuts16 can handle it. I know its not a crane but geeze.
