Hi, Im pretty new to this so ya, I have a 08 Aqua Metallic Lancer GTS and Im really diggin the L.E.D underbody lights, I've been doing some research and I found one of them that I am really interested in

http://cgi.ebay.com/6PC-7-COLOR-4PC-...3286.m20.l1116

I want to get them, but before ordering them, I have a couple of questions, first, what do you guys think of it? are they a good choice, because i dont want no neons, i want LEDs.
Also, how would you install them, cause i read that to get it install at pepboys they charge you $300 and HELLZ NA!!....so my main concern is do you have to make any holes or anything like that in the car for the cables?? and what about the cables because i dont want the cables to look all around the car you kno...i wanna have it clean

Please help and answer ASAP
THNX

Dude all in all its your ride, Do to it what you feel you will enjoy. I dunno how those mount but usually you dont drill into the under body of a car, unless your looking for rust. he wires can be zip tied to anything available and then mounted inside the engine compartment for power then run through the fire wall to the cabin for a on off switch. Unless it comes with a wireless remote. The diff b/w LED and NEON is with LED you will see the light concentration ever so often if you point them straight down, where as neons provide steady glow through out. LED takes less power to operate so you can leave em on longer with out fear of draining the battery. I know 2 lancer owners personally both with LED and they enjoy them..
