LED Interior lighting
Hello all, i was wondering if it would be hard to install these LED strips inside my 07' c230? http://www.oznium.com/led-flex-strips what would i need to power these things up? I would be putting these under the dash, driver, passanger and under both back seats. thanks in advance.

not many people have done these types of mods, but a few
i personally have the 4 piece blue interior kit from http://www.ledunderbody.com
i also have their underbody blue led kit
i really would recommend buying the led's from them
other interior lighting products i have seen are cheaply made
and not nearly as bright. the ones i have contain 18 leds per tube
so its definitely very bright
mine are powered from the fuse box directly behind ur headlamp controls
2 of my tubes are located directly above the driver and pass. footwell
and the other 2 are underneath the front seats aimed forward.

I don't care what anyone else says. I love that!!! i use to have blue neons on my rav4 under the car and also in the interior just like yours. people gave me **** about having it on the mb, but i like it! looking good. i think my switch for activating it will have to be cleaner and totally oem looking. the bullet switch just won't cut it. maybe i can hook it up to the useless telephone button on my steering wheel
. hmmmmm.
WARNING:
Be very careful about using LED's under the car vs using normal neons. Since our cars are a bit low to the ground the LED's will show up as dots on the ground rather than a clean blend that you would get with neons. for under body, i'd recommend neons over LED's for this reason.
