Default Puddle led lights???

Hey guys just got a set of 10 puddle white led lights but don't know were to put them?? I have seen them on some nice vip cars and not sure if my car is ready for them! Do they get installed on the skirt or under the body next to the skirt? Or should i just sell them? Sorry if its a stupid question. Thanks

Do you have aftermarket side skirts(bodykit) or the OEM skirt? Did they come with mounting brackets? You could push them away from the body, or try and mount them to look flush. Either way, use a GOOD Waterproof Sealant around ANY openings or joined parts. I flushed mine on an aftermarket skirt. I had to modify. Serves more like a courtesy running light rather then an undercarriage light. Further out from the vehicle, the more visible. Oh, consider even mounting angles. Yeah your cars ready for it! It's a Lex!

i thought about doing it to my headliner while i had it out to do the suade but i already have the interior super bright! Just on my dome light i was able to fit about 80 led and they look really nice. Ill use this on the outside since they are waterproof ill have to post updated pix of my car since i have done a lot in my interior.

Oh man then they'll do really well underneath your sideskirts instead of having neons. Just gotta find a fitting rail to install them.
