Welcome from the Treasure Coast, did you win?

Heck yeah, that's a big $5'er right there.

Thanks guys, going to probably redo the 3rd row lighting with something from the usb-c port in the back. Not happy with my first attempt overall but just wanted to see how it looked and it definitely needs to be permanent. Going to try one of those kits you can put around your TV.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. I was deciding if I really needed the 3rd row lights and in my first pictures they were just stick on battery powered lights I had in my house. After 2 days I decided its definitely necessary. So I got these stick on LEDs that are generally meant for going behind a TV, used the home power source in the back and hooked them up under the 3rd row, totally ties the whole thing together and definitely worth the $14.

Without them, the 3rd row is just this sad dark hole, now it looks awesome. The video definitely shows it best.

With the music it reminds me of stage lighting. Looks great.

PS those back of the TV lights suck. They get jacked up when you fold the seats down. I found a similar solution for the 3rd row to the rest of the car that I was able to plug into the power outlet in the back.

Now the 3rd row is more colorful than ever!
