Default DSR Underbody LEDs

Heres some pics...

As suggested, I decided to use hot-glue to mount these LEDs to plastic tracks.

PM Steve Ganz (SUPRATRD) for details.

should use Goob ("spell") or something like that type of glue (sell at homedepot and local autopart), it's a better glue than hot glue, the car vibration will cause the light to come off eventually, just a suggestion

Yeah, put them on already. I am curious how these lights look on a silver.

If they are nice, I'd might hit em up myself...

there are door lights as well. so you probably just need to run wires from there?

okay did anyone not notice that bananaGS just posted? LTNS man! your site is a savior to all GS kind.

Phil....good idea with the tracks....where exactly do you plan on mounting them?

I have L-tuned side skirts and I kind of had to go with the flow of the side skirts when i made my kit to make sure the lights hit the ground uniformly. My thoughts about your track idea is that the lights will beam straight down and be too far in...for them to be "door illumination" lights...and instead become underbody lights....

very interested in your final results.....keep us posted! keep up the good work though
