I take it back, I was doing some research and I can buy 2 12" 6k LED strip lights, a y-harness, and the 158 adapter for around $11.00 on V-leds.com and make the trunk light myself...save around $20 and do it myself...so I'll probably order that stuff on thursday and install it when I get it...

My g/f is awesome...i've been talking a lot about my car lately and told her a couple weeks ago some stuff I was planning to do...so for Easter she surprised me and bought me the MagnaFlow Cat-back exhaust, I'M STOKED! Should be getting it in next week and hopefully will install it next weekend! Thanks Baby!

Nice gift! She's a keeper.....lol

 

[benschaefer]

She's a keeper for a lot more reasons than that, but that's just one reason she's pretty awesome

wish i had a girl like that.. not too many girls out there that respect, let alone contribute to modding cars. lucky man.... lucky man...

My wife bought my CAI and said that's it, nothing else.

Well that's still nice of her. My g/f doesn't mind my hobbies as long as she still gets to go shopping! She's really not going to like it when I get another bike.

Got my v-leds.com 6k dome light installed:

 

[benschaefer]

Also got my custom LED trunk light...I made it using products from v-leds.com (please excuse the messy trunk!):

 

[mikejamesbyma]

Looks good. Looks like it adds a tonne of light.

it really does make a huge difference...the pics don't really do it justice, but it lights up the whole trunk

 

[black05alti]

definitely plan on doing the same exact trunk lighting mod. did you get the top dollar bulb from vled for the dome light?

 

[benschaefer]

here is the light I used for the Dome LED:
