GB: Door Sill LED's???
 
GB OFFER CLOSED!!


Hey, I'm sure most of you have seen the pics of my door sills with the LED's. If you haven't here you go:

I'm wondering if anyone is interested in a GB on it. If it goes through, I WILL be doing a DIY on it. Here's the catch. The company that make them USUALLY only sells them to LARGE clients, like hotel chains. Therefore, he says that he's going to need at least 15 guys that are interested. Here are some pics of the actual product:

They only come on when the doors open, when you shut it they turn off just like the dome correct?

correct. but it all depends on how you want them wired.

methodbasic Jan 6, 2008 06:53 PM

so you need 3 12" strips per door x 4 doors = 12 strips per person right?

What are you trying to do?? What you need for door sill lights are:

4 x 6mm LED strips (12 inches long each)

That's it! 4 strips for all doors. probably 2 strips if you want them lighting the interior, like footlights and 2-3 strips if you want the trunk/engine bay lit.


All i've got is 1 - 6mm strip at each door.
