Looks great!

Mind sharing the specs on the LED lights? Specifically the brand and size you went with? Also, how you mounted them? Thanks again for sharing. I've never really thought about this, but it looks amazing and it has definitely sparked my interest.

I bought these lights and they are plenty bright but the wires for them were very cheap. They worked but they are very thin. Probably 24 gauge or something light that. I used 3m emblem tape and taped them to the steps. I grounded the wires with a screw on the body near the back wheel well. Then I ran the power wire through the emergency brake cable grommet under the drivers floor mat. I then ran the wire up into the drivers side A pillar and tapped into the solid grey wire for the dome light.

I'm looking...OK I ordered 2 sets , at that price I can't go wrong. I'm thinking of the running boards and those should mount easier than the strips.

I am trying to do this install. Does anyone know where I can tap into the side mirror lights for power? The lights in the mirror are orange/white and black/white but it seems thy change colors inside.

Thanks
