I bought a bunch of little LED's off of ebay and want to install them in my vents kind of like this or this. Does anyone know how to attach the LEDs, or run the wiring or get into the vents in the first place?

 

what year and model?? usualy if you take the front panels off you can access the vents.. next to the doors where the dash and the door meet when they close. look when the doors are open theres a piece that you can just pry off i think then you would be able to take the vents off

well i dont know about taking off the panel surounding the cdplayer and everything. i would think it would be the same as my 04.. i have a service manual for 01-04.. but i know the panels on the side should be easy to remove..use like a flat head screwdriver. if you want i can send you pics..

 

Here is what a guy on one of my jbody forums did:



how to

 

Thats exactly what i needed man. Seems like a bit more of a project than i thought, just mainly getting the whole vents out and whatnot. We'll see though, might have to take a weekend and try it. Thanks alot!

 

the side vents are soo easy to take out, you just need to get a flat head and go underneath it and pop it out, you place the l.e.d where you want it, mabey use some double sided tape to keep it down, and the wires get all run in the back of your dash

 

You can always count on mill$

 

i got 3inch neon tubes behind my vents. looks really good. the vents should just pop out and u can run the wiring down behind your dash to wherever.

 

might i make a sugestion....

one for leds... BUY PREWIRED.LMFAO soldering wires and resistors is a HUGE PAIN and after about 3-4 youll wish you spent the extra money for prewired!!!

they also sell LED holders which will clean up the looks instead of just pushen the led thru a raw hole!

and if you REALY REALY WANT SOME BRIGHT LIGHT..... get some 4inch cold cathodes!

and then if you REALY REALY want to put them in a extermly TIGHT spot... warm up the ends and pull the bulb outta the tubes..... then its smaller than a pencil bulb just slightly bigger than the lead in the pencil! JUST dont put them where they touch metal or where you might touch them or else youll get shocked.LMFAO

I LOVE COLD CATHODES!
