I added some of the led strips under the hood and wired them to the stock light which has a gravity switch so they turn on automatically when I open the hood. All wiring was soldered; heat shrink also. I used a deutsch waterproof connector to hook to the stock light so it can still be removed easily. These really light up the engine bay, and nice and even!

Now I can't find the lens for the stock light. I ordered a new led festoon bulb for it since the old one doesn't work. Might have to make a new lens if it doesn't turn up, I'm not paying $20 for a new light dammit!

Nice and bright!
Now you gotta dress up the engine bay , any plans ? :secret:

I'll keep an eye out for a lens if I come across one at the yard I go to.

Sweet. It mounts by snapping into 2 rectangle holes. Let me know if you need the dimensions of them and I'll make a diagram.
