I purchased led bulbs from superbright for my civic. I recommend this place. Very reasonable prices, fast shipping and good products.

I will be very interested to see what kind of light they put out. Please put a "lit" picture up when you get them installed.

I bought 20 of those led's. I was impressed with the light output. If you put them 2' apart around your rig, it would light up very well. I hooked all 20 together and from the center of my rig, you could see all around the truck. I hooked 1 to a 9v battery, and I could walk around my house in the dark and see real good. Only time will tell how long they last. Amazing light output for $1.99. These things are tiny.

Pretty neat. I was thinking on using something like this, but with a twist. I've got some 1" lexan we used to cover the shop lights we put in the shop floor. A good chunk of it is left. I was going to cut a slice of it, drill holes on one end (not the face, but an end) that are slightly larger than the LEDS and slip one in each hole and epoxy. I could use my router to cut a trench to gather the wires in and epoxy that too. Terminate with a pair of plugs (RCA or whatever) and epoxy that in place. Run my wires to a small switch panel in my console or door pocket and I can appear ricey going down the street or flip one on to check for damage after hitting a critter on my way home.

I figure 2-4 lights per slab of lexan. The lexan can be drilled for mounting and the light will diffuse everywhere and provide a nice glow. The lexan is tough to bust and I can hit it with some wet 600-1000 grit and plastic polish to keep the luminosity.

Its a virtual no-load setup for lighting where you need it. Might even put a couple in the cargo area of the blazer since the light back there now is almost useless.
