The lights don't seem very bright, but I can't stay awake for full dark! I'll try to take a better one in the am...

Thanks for the great instructions Blue!

Very cool Mo! They look impressive when you open the doors say at walmart parking lot. People have walked up to us asking about them.

Are they red?

Yes-I couldn't find red ones anywhere, so Auto Zone ordered some for me. And they didn't match the Wal-Mart price either

Well, I went out at 3:15am before work and checked the lights-they just aren't very bright. Are yours Blue? They looked it in the pictures. These just kind of glow-not really a light. If my red/white stock lights went out, I don't think you'd be able to see much. But they add a little extra to the door. I like it. :thumb:

I think they should be brighter. Are they the same brand as the ones in the 1st post?

MoAv · « **Reply #7 on:** September 25, 2007, 02:20:48 AM »

Looks like a different package-but same part number- CZ-152R (for red?) The bar itself looks identical.

I used the same brand also and I didn't think they were as bright as I was expecting them to be either. They do the job ok but I wish they were a little brighter still. I may add another one under my dash in a few weeks.

I'm going to look for something a bit brighter also-talked to my electronics man today and he's going to find something for me. He mentioned underdash, door, backseat lights, and something called a 7 color LED programmable underbody glow kit? Can't wait to see what he comes up with!! I better buy some more fuses too... :thumb:

Well dang it-I went out to the AV this afternoon and the darn lights fell off! They won't stick!

They sure light up the side pockets tho..

Maybe I'll just leave them there! The new "modified" Devil's mod... :thumb:

Yeah i noticed that too. Mine are coming off on the ends. I have a roll of 3M duoble sided tape used for attaching automotive products so im cutting the same length and applying it and see whats up. I know theres a cure for this.

Did you clean the area you applied them at with a alcohol wipe before applying them? I'm sure they would need a clean and untreated surface to be applied to.

Yes-I used alcohol just in case someone had used armor-all or something on the door panel. Probably just cheap tape. I'll have to find some good 3M tape and try that. If that doesn't work-out they go!! We'll see. Blue-let me know how new tape works- (I'll let you be the guinea pig

)

Got around to trying to fix this today. Bought a roll of 3M double sided tap, cut it to fit, and after cleaning the door again with alcohol (rubbing, not Patron...) I reattached the lights and boy did they stick! I'm thinking they'll be ok this time. They didn't stick up too bad from the door with the extra tape, but I went ahead and went around the lights with some of that flexible chrome. Cross your fingers!!

Can't wait to see this in person.
