more leds
I had a few led products left so I decided to try and fix some areas. I mounted a plastic mounting pad so I could point a 7" led strip at the exhaust enhancer plate.I wired it to the left license light light.
Worked pretty well
I had a 9" section of ozniums thin led strip left so I mounted it to help light my license plate.I used small plastic loops and mounted them to the inside screws of the license plate lights and stuck them to the facia.
I wired the license plate leds into the right side license light. 
I have 1 19" led strip and several bare leds both blue and red. What should I do next ..Stop maybe??
How could black cherry led tailights not be next??????

Very Nice - I used to small red LED under rear fashia pointing towards the exhaust plate - came out very subtle but nice.
Don't think the RED on the license plate would fly around these parts though.
Good Job! ----->

The new leds look very good - especially on the exhaust plate.

Thanks for all the feedback! It looks like most people like the exhaust plate but not so sure about the license plate mod. Thats why I made it not permanent. Easy to eliminate this mod. I'm not so sure It's legal either, I've never been hassled about anything so far. Anybody want to post their pics of their exhaust plates.Or their license plate areas.
