Not passing judgement or offering my personal opinion, but the pic above reminded me of a trip to Vegas a couple of years ago where we went out one night in what was billed as the "Disco Cab". It was pretty wild!

I saw these à while back and it looks nice but I don't want to take a part my seats. Too easy to damage the clips taking off the back side

No need to take your seat apart. It technically "slides" into the opening grove towards the top of the back seats.

But my question is where these lights get their power from?? I assume you need the LED Airvents as well in order to do this mod?

Just tap and extend the closest ambient led wires.

I haven't looked, but you can tap center console or footwell ambient wires (each side) to the seats.

I will also be installing the rear vents I got.

​​​​My ambient is tame compared to OEM.

I'm with you dude, I like it! Right now my focus is on exterior appearance and performance. When I move to tweaking the interior, my first targets are full aftermarket ambient lighting similar to what you are doing and a steering wheel swap.

Looking forward to pics of your setup.

Nice, there are ambient lights under each front seat. This just became easier. Time to get out the ole soldering iron.

Doa

But what about the wires if you don't off the backside of the seats?

Well, I was wrong the ambient lights under the seats are RGB (4 wire) and not 3 wire. The color circuity is in the light module. I had to run a cable from the center console to the back to feed the backrest lights and the rear vents.
