Questions about interior LED strips
So i was just able to get some GCS Interior lighting strips for my FR-S and so after making sure all the stuff came alright, me and i my friend began discussing on how we would install them. The issue being that there are two ways to do it. One is through the cigarette lighter in the glove box or we could add a fuse with the interior fuse box. I felt like the add a fuse while a bit more difficult would be best as it would be neater and take up less space. And although it hasn’t been tested yet i was hoping to plug it in the fuse space for fog lights since i don’t have any so hopefully i could turn them on and off with the lights without having to turn my headlights fully on if i want it on during the day. But his point of view was it that it would be simpler if i need to remove it all together or if there would be issues and that it’s best not to mess with the fuse box at all. Is there any recommendations or advice with this type of installation?
Another smaller question is about the actual placement of them. Being that 4 strips came and so the two obvious spots would be for the footwell lights. And while the installation people recommend to put them under the seat on the rail i feel like that would be a waste and there has been stories of sliding the seat and crunching them. And i looked into maybe trying to get them through the door panel to put under the rest on the doors but i haven’t been able to find any tutorials about that so it’s probably a no go. So my question is if theres any other good spots that one would recommend to put the extra two strips or should i just store them in case of emergency. Any advice would help.
