Interior LED strip questions
 
Im sure this was asked a million times but id rather get the questions i want to ask answered for me and to my own specs.
So, i want to hook up some interior led's (Like footwell lighting). Looking for something multicolor so i can change the colors. Its gotta be sleek looking with no crazy wires everywhere and crap. Id be doing the install myself..
Any ideas on to where i might find this stuff? I would need like 4 separate strips. Maybe even 1 for the bed o_0? Id like to wire them on an on/off switch rather than off the headlights/ignition switch. Id also like to be able to relatively easily be able to change the colors. Remote controlled would be nice.
Any ideas as to where i can find something that will work and where i can mount any switches necessary without doing any serious permanent damage (IE no drilling thru my dash)?

I had a set of underglows from the website posted below on my Challenger and loved it. Remote, endless configurations, etc. They have interior setups. Might be worth the look.

I'm fairly certain that you can get one set color as well to avoid any potential "fruitiness", lol, but I figured I'd let you know about what I had. Got six exterior and four interior tubes, as well as the wireless control box and remote and of course, necessary wires through my sponsor and it wasn't that bad, financially speaking.

Yeah im definitely going to look into that. I Know exactly where i can put them too. The bottom of my running boards is hollow so i can double side tape them right in the running boards lol.

There you go. Just make sure that to theoretically avoid any exterior-related issues, get the proper tubes. Interior tubes may not be made to withstand weather, rocks, etc like the exterior tubes are.

I currently have over 7 feet of led strips in the interior of my truck. Ill take pics if you want. What about exterior underglow? Has anyone installed that yet?

Planning on using the same thing to do lights under the doors for puddle lights

I have those in the bed but using them under the doors is a good idea. I'd like to know where im stepping at night. Heres my front seats lit up.
