diy cheap asian style car underbody lights

Step 6Installing the lights to car.

installing the lights to car.
now its time for you to use ur imagination. every car is different and your personal taste is different to mines. install the leds wherever u feel like.

i used hot glue to stick the wood to the car chasis. this is to prevent the sticks from falling down.
i then applied stronger (heat resistant) glue to hold it up.

if u have access to a car jack, then use it. or even better, a car hoist. i recommend screwing instead of glue. but i didnt want to drill holes.

one thing to watch out for is the exhast pipe. it gets hot and might melt ur wires it its too close.


UPDATE:

after reading the comment from Instructables4ever, ive realised that using neodymium would make installation so much easier. and removable if you wish to remove them.

take apart a hard drive and steal the magnets. chuck some super strong glue on the back of the led stick. and let it dry/cure.

you should be able to just stick it on the car and it wil stay there untill you force it out.

should of thought about magnets earlier. would of saved so much time.

thanks to Instructables4ever. i'll use magnets if i were to do this project again.

And so much easier of stealing if with magnets... I will make mines with screw, and then put hot glues on screws, so that even I could not take it off so easily ;]
And for later I will hope, that everything will be okay and LED's wont fry out for long :D
