I have blue neons under my seat and they seem to light everything up really nice instead of having to mount everything under the dash board ans such. I do like the cupholder idea though. Do those LED's get in the way of big cups fitting into the cupholders?

when I was mounting my cathodes under in my footwells, i inadvertantly mounted them too high. They're out of view (unless you decide to stick your head down near the carpet), which is good, but i think some of the light is being blocked out. I was thinking about putting foil paper around the top part, then i laughed myself to sleep...

did u hook the LEDs up of the back seats? can u take some pics of the back seats please and some at the trunk. and where did u wired up ( connect wires) the LED in the back of the trunk?
and i have a question we use the LEDs or Cathode lights ( which one is better) to install inside the car?
