A little DIY for LED Dome light (super bright)

We were bored yesterday, since it was raining over here in NY. We took one of our friend's Fit dome light and design to make it a little different.
Enjoy!

I have been dying to learn how to make LED's on custom PCBs. I like to tinker, but I have no technical knowledge on electronics or anything like that.

The LED light panel has two wire, (clear with white line) is +, (clear) is -. First, we took out the plastic lens, then unscrew two screws from the dome light body. the dome light body will pop out right away. Unplug the wire from the back. After that we just connect two wire to the positive terminal and negative terminal on the dome light body, and put everything back together. With len cover, the len light come out a lot better. Everthing total cost around $20.

wow.. the lights are REALLY bright and very nice too. If I come down to pick it up myself, can the price be lowered? Do you still carry more stuff for the FIT... like performance parts? I will come to the store to check the prices for the rims soon. Thanks.
