Default Mugen style visors and Interior Illumination

Well a few cheap mods i was working on I did the floor lights using cold cathodes. and bought a pair of the replica visors off ebay. I'll be willing to do some DIY if you guys would like. ics: (#/10) is rating of how hard it was to install

Interior Illumination: (5/10)
it was fairly easy to take apart the interior compared to my 97 integra or 98 civic wiring the tubes was easy too if you have a basic understanding of electronics. overall I'm very happy with the install the lights are bright enough to light up the foot wells but not enough to cause a distraction, I wired them to the dome light so they only come on when the door opens.
<U>Bad night time pics. </U>

And because all the other pics of where to tap the wires sucked I took one in macro mode it's the blue plug with the pink and blue wire the pink is ground and the blue is hot.


Mugen Replica Visors (3/10)
I took a gamble and got these off ebay for 37 shipped. after doing alot of research about how ppl were getting blacked out visors and how you cant see through them i took the plunge anyways with low expectations and for 37 buck VS the 200 how could i go wrong? It turns out the vendor i bought them form came in transparent plastic they use 3m tape and looks just like the real thing! I just go them today and it's been raining a lot on the east coast but i will try to get a pic of them installed tom.

they came wrapped in plastic, transparent and used 3M double sided tape

over all very happy with both mods so far. If anyone wants better pics let me know.:spinning:

Yeah...lol...for real. I am not a fan of the visors (not a fan of any brand, not just yours), but they do look like just like the Mugen ones. So
