Sedan Trunk Lighting - Basic

[fnkngrv]

So I have been tired of how anemic the stock trunk light is with the sedan that I disconnected it a few years ago. I finally got around to picking up some lights a couple weeks ago and installed today. They are a pair of 36 White SMD LED pads. I cut the factory socket off and spliced these on. I like them a lot. I am thinking of ordering a few more and attaching them elsewhere in the trunk to include one in the spare tire well. I installed the current ones right up behind the rear lip of the rear deck.

Took a couple pics around dusk to try and get the best picture quality. They light up very well an stay cool to the touch.

I know that you can find them easily just about anywhere online, but here is the link to the vendor on eBay that I purchased from:

Nice and bright!
Stock is dim as hell!

I'm going to do that with strip lighting on that flat spot towards the back seat.

I plan on using the adapters for t10 socket that came with the dome light led that I bought.

Those are alright, but I found they can be problematic if the spring mechanism decides to give you a tough time. Found that out the hard way by burning a couple fuses. Best of luck!
