LED Lights

Ok. I know I have already admitted to a Cobalt addiction and anything to do with tricking my SS so another question. I have already ordered an underglow LED kit but for some strange reason the Cobalt I have has almost no interior lighting. I want to install some colored LED lights for inside the car. Can anyone help with information on this or where i can buy kits in the Vancouver BC area.

i can take a couple picks of how i did my LEDs. Did them myself and took 2 days.

all i did is pop out the interior panels mark out where i wanted them and drilled holes for them. i think it looks great.

i placed 4 underneithe the sterio unit in that little lip.
4 under the hand brake, 2 on the side walls and 2 facing my shift boot and sterio so they all glow blue aswell. i also have 4 in each footwells

ill try and take some photos tonight and get them up here to view

I will be 46 on my next birthday in September......hard to believe sometimes. Time does fly by quickly so make the best of it. I thought the underglow would look cool and some of my kids.....well all of them thought it would be cool to. Interior is more for function as the Cobalt I drive has no dome light or lights in the back which I find stupid. So Red led will look good.

I think Vanity Racers name and post says it all. Looking forward to the how to pics....thanks. I am suffering with separation anxiety but should have the balt back on Thursday from Panther Wheels

i have a StreetGlow 7color L.E.D. underglow kit, im looking to get rid of. box opened. but never used/taken out of packaging. was opened to verify it was the right product, then my Cavalier got totalled. so, i never got around to using it. now i have a blue SS, and think i would rather do performance over looks. PM me if your interested. i am just looking to get what i paid for them. i can show you pics if you would like too. lemme know

I got the LEDs from a friend who had a big box of them just sitting in his garage. He let me just take a handfull.

He told me that his dad had ordered them from ebay. had lots of different colours to choose from like yellow, red, gree, and blue
