#1: Wiring single LED strip into left footwell (HELP) !!!!!!!! Author: adamscfc, Location: CongletonPosted: Thu Jan 30, 2014 9:11 am ---- Hi guys ,
Im wiring a single strip LED in my left footwell , ive stuck the LED on the underside of the glove comparntment and ive ran a short amount of wire back into MY ASH TRAY below where the little ash tray is im guessing these are NEG & POS , so the lights will come on when side lights and headlights on but i dont want that does anyone know what sort of with i need to control as when my lights stay on i can switch my LED's on/off due to it being to bright whilst driving and draining battery ? Im guessing its a 2 way switch just power out from the ashtray light into my switch and the wire out to my LED's.
Thanks guys
