I just finished installing the Oznium Flowlighting Inferno V2 wheel well kit (four zone led tube controller and tubes) in my interior and these tubes are bright:

Most led prebuilt unit's will last a good long while, some not as much... My buddy has four cheap blue led tubes he got off ebay over 5 years ago and they are still working, might not be as bright but bright enought....

new ones in right?

Absolutely. It would be really easy to replace the LEDs if they ever broke. But, being that they are LEDs, they will probably last a good amount of time if they are even just decent quality.

I had a few wide angle LED's lying around and decided to go for it. Just simply wired it up to a switch to my center console where the eBrake is.





Believe it or not, I only used 2 LED's per side, for a total of 4 LED's. I'm going to see if I can figure out how to wire them so that they turn on when the doors open as well...</TD></TR></TABLE>

What kind of led's did you use? I love how it doesn't have the spot light affect. I've been looking for some wide angle red led's (140 degrees) but I can't find them with the mcd that I think will be bright enough.

If you want bright red wide angle LED's look at dorado or X lamp...they are 1 watt leds and are of damn good quality.
