Led accent lights install questions

[wykon]

I did a search but did not see any threads on the best way to put led accent lights on the 6r.

What are some ways to add the small led lights under the plastic?

Thanks for your help in advance!

The search can be a little tricky. Here is a thread that I started and should give you some ideas. I put a video up of my locations and I know Sage did as well. Good luck and feel free to ask me any questions, I basically went through what you are going through a month or so ago.

It all depends on the type of LED's you get. You can get the strips, or you can get some in pods, or you can just get a single led on the end of a wire. I can't really help with wiring them as I'm not very good at that sort of stuff yet...as far as placement though...

The pods and strips usually come with some sort of adhesive backing on them so you could stick them wherever you want.

The single ones depending on how you run them could just be zip tied to the frame or you could just use some clear silicone to "stick" it wherever it is you'd want them to be.

Yes, I got the LED pods and I think mine turned out nicely. Here is the link to what I bought. I got the Extreme LED kit. I did buy a few extra lights too, as I mentioned in the video.

I only have the individual lights each on its own wire, so how would I attach them? Do I attach them to the frame with an adhesive or tie straps or should I glue them to the plastic?

I'd use something like E6000 if you wanted to "glue" them. You could zip tie some to the frame and "glue" others with E6000 on the plastic.

Thanks for all the recommendations! Has anyone tried the individual lights or only the pods and strips?

I have strips and a few that are a single LED in places. They give sufficient light for my needs.
