I used the same exact mounting locations that GVA did to achieve the effect. The strips I used are a different type from his and can typically be found on Amazon etc. I can PM you the details. I used an RGB LED controller and put the underglow on one switch and the halos on another so he didn't have to have everything running at the same time if he didn't want to. Like others suggested though, if you aren't sure about much as far as wiring goes seek outside assistance.
Looks good agkelly

That is how I want mine. Alot of people don't have theirs from wheel to wheel like your install but that looks the best. Also in the PM you put this link:
http://www.amazon.com/SUPERNIGHT-TM-...rips+black+pcb Is that what you used for the install?

I just installed mine. I cleaned the bottom and then cleaned it with rubeing alcohol. I ran the strip from the back fender to the front. I then removed the front wheel and the wheel well cover. I ran the wiring up into the firewall and wired them to my remote that I put in the center console. The rear one I wired it to the bottom of the trunk and wired the rgb thru one of the grommets and ran it to the front. I attached the front strip to the front bumper behind the strip that is located on the bottom of the bumper. I wired the rgb thru the firewall and to the remote. They are bright as hell. I'll post pics. I can answer your questions if you have any. Pm me

Ya post pics, what brand did you use? And that seems like a more complicated way of wiring.

I dont have pics of mine but would definitely do a switch inside the cabin for on/off control.

Another thing --- If you looking to do lots of LEDS in the future I would start thinking long term how wanting to operate. IE Night owl (which is the best) or another type of controller.

Nightowl is a good way to go if you plan on adding more lights in the future, or planning on running RGB lights. Oracle aka Automotivelightingstore.com also have led strips u can order by the inch or foot. Like 5' a foot for a single color or 10' a foot for RGB. So in order to do both sides, front, and back will be like $160 for RGB or $80 for a single color. If you need help pm me.
