I know there have Other threads about this but I don't like to take a new truck apart. I found a double neon strip that Is powered by a cigarette lighter 12v (which is perfect for my 2011) with an on/off switch on the plug. Anyone else gone this route or have any other plug and play options?

 

Are you trying to put the light inside the center console?

 

i just put a min mag on that little tray in there... no wires, no switches, no drilling.. easy day...

 

Yes since I can't see in there! Lol

 

Well if you have the center console with the 12V cigarette outlet facing the rear you could tap into that with a switch to the "light" that you would want to put in you would have a easy console light.

 

My $7 neon fix sounds good!

 

Thats what I did. But I installed a mercury switch inside the top portion of the console. So when you open it the lights come on and close it, they go off.. I have been meaning to post a 'How To" on it. But as of yet I haven't had the time to disassemble my console and take pics of what I did. But I assure you, it works great. Everything is hidden. The LED strips had a sticky back, so I mounted then up in the outer lip on each side on the console and ran the wires through the back and down to the 12v lighter. Very clean and the LED's are very bright. Good for looking into that huge storage space in the Flowthrough console.....

 

NEED a "how to" ASAP, sounds like an awesome mod, can't wait to copy it.

 

Hopefully I can get it done this week. I am at work... its Christmas week and not much doing. So hopefully I can get it done here at work......

 

I did the same as "Fordever" , love it and was fun to do. I used the leftover LEDs from my mirror reflector project and an under hood mercury switch from the "u-pickit" ($0)
