Illumination tape for the car in the cabin. How to organize the illumination of door handles and legs in a car with your own hands

There are many ways to personalize your car. Someone pulls the interior on their own, someone seeks to attract attention with homemade spoilers. But most often, do-it-yourself interior lighting makes an unforgettable impression on others.

The lights can statically burn or blink to the beat of the music playing in the cabin. You can experiment in different ways, the main thing is to use the necessary durable materials. Then it will not be necessary to often redo the circuit or its individual nodes.

When a polite car interior lighting is manufactured and installed, you can choose how to activate it. Contacts coming from the door opening sensor are used as automatic on / off. You can also use the remote control to turn it on at the right time for the driver.

Light strips are placed along the perimeter of the opened door, under the feet of passengers, in place of standard lighting devices, along the instrument panel, inside the trunk, as well as in other areas of the cabin that you like.

Applicable materials

High-quality car interior lighting is distinguished by competent and appropriate use of light materials. The most popular light sources are LED and neon lights. Let's analyze the characteristics of both light sources.

LEDs:

  • often used due to its ease of installation;
  • most blank materials come with the ability to fix with a built-in adhesive strip;
  • each LED takes up very little space and can harmoniously fit into the internal area of ​​standard lighting;
  • the mounting tape with LEDs is made of durable material;
  • LEDs have a long service life;
  • quick response at start-up allows them to be used as light music.

You need to know that before installing additional lighting of any type, you must disconnect the battery from the mains.

neon lamps:

  • neon lamps have a bright unusual light;
  • with proper operation, the service life can be longer than that of LEDs;
  • adapted for use in static conditions, without fast on/off cycles;
  • sensitive to mechanical stress;
  • installation takes longer than LEDs.

Neon lighting design

Beautiful illumination in the interior of the car with your own hands will be using combined elements. For example, decorate the lower part of the interior with neon lights, and decorate the side and top with LEDs. However, this design element should not be overused. It is necessary to arrange everything in such a way that harmony is created.

You need to know that an excess and a large number of colorful lights look tasteless.

We will select materials for the installation of both types of additional lighting. You can start from the bottom of the cabin, where they put neon lights. For installation you will need:

  • a set of several neon lamps;
  • aluminum mounting bracket;
  • plastic clamps;
  • screws for fixing.

In a standard sold set of neon lights for a car, a plug is often installed to connect voltage through the cigarette lighter socket. For this operation, it is not required, so you can select a set without it or cut off this plug as unnecessary, and we clean the ends of the wire for connection in the circuit.

We measure the length of the aluminum corner for mounting it under the torpedo, saw it off to the desired length and fasten it at the bottom. Usually mounted under the glove box first. We fix the lamp on the clamps, directing the future radiation in the right direction. We repeat the operation in the driver's area and on the rear passenger seats.

Behind the corner must be placed in such a way as to protect the lamp from bumps and accidental pressure. To do this, the corner is fixed with a free edge up.

The ends of the wires are built up, insulated at the junctions, hidden under the upholstery and brought under the torpedo to be connected to the circuit. The simplest option is to connect to a door opening sensor or under a general backlight. It is worth entering into such a scheme a separate switch for additional lighting.

Design of additional lighting from LEDs

Interior lighting using LEDs begins with the preparation of materials. Most often, two types of RGB or SMD tape are used. The second option will be a little more expensive, but easier to work with. Additionally, you can pick up single LEDs for selected areas, but more painstaking car owners are already working with them.

To replace standard lamps, LED counterparts with the same base designs are suitable. In other places he holds a tape. Before installation, it is necessary to measure the required length of the strip and cut off the desired piece of tape at fixed points. There are usually hard spots in the tape to break the chain. It is by them that the length must be divided. If you do not cut according to the given marks, then there will be no contacts to which the wires are soldered for further wiring.

The tape is usually distributed along the torpedo, over the entire perimeter of the roof and lowered along the pillars of the doorways. Fixation is carried out using double-sided adhesive tape attached to the LED line from the back and closed with a protective strip. We tear it off and fix the LED strip.

You need to know that when working with LEDs, polarity must be strictly observed, otherwise they can be damaged.

We solder the wires to the open ends of the LED strip and close the connection with shrink film. Warming up the soldered place covered with a film with the help of an industrial or household hair dryer, we close the contacts from oxidation. Next, we display the ends of the wires in the same way as with the neon connection.

When using an RGB tape, you can assemble the circuit using an RGB controller.

Conclusion

Installing polite lighting in the car does not take much time. If you have all the tools and materials, you can spend several hours on installation. As a result, the car will become more attractive and get individual features.

In recent years, car tuning has become very popular. In the process of its implementation, body structures are primarily refined, which immediately catch the eye and clearly emphasize the individuality of the car owner.

No less effect can be achieved through internal tuning, one of the varieties of which is the use of dashboard lighting, the upper part of the cabin and in the leg area.

Quite often, the interior lighting of a car, including such a design as atmospheric interior lighting, is often implemented by hand. It is used as a means of increasing the efficiency of using domestic automotive products, such as, for example, the popular VAZ-2110.

Combination of aesthetics and functionality

VAZ interior lighting as its do-it-yourself tuning is usually designed by the developer to solve several problems at the same time.

The first of these tasks in relation to the VAZ-2110 is the creation of an appropriate image, which is achieved by using additional sources of different brightness and color.

As for the functional role that the interior lighting of a car has, its practical achievement is noticeably more difficult. For the VAZ-2110, the presence of additional light sources means that at night, very comfortable conditions are provided not only for the driver, but also for passengers. Let's name just a few of them:

  • tuning in the form of illumination helps to quickly find various objects, including small ones, both in the purse and glove box, and on the seats;
  • the so-called polite interior lighting makes landing in the VAZ-2110 much more comfortable, due to the delay in turning off the light after closing the door, and a smooth decrease in the brightness of the standard bulb at the same time;
  • illumination of the lower part of the VAZ-2110 interior allows you to quickly detect objects that have fallen on the floor in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe legs;
  • Illuminated door handles make it easier for passengers to get on and off.

The list of advantages can be continued if desired.

LED lighting elements

Illumination, including in the leg area, can be created by various sources. Without big problems, all varieties of known interior lighting options can be implemented with your own hands.

Past experience clearly shows that this tuning provides the best results when using single and strip solid state light sources to illuminate the area around the legs and other places. This is determined by:

  • they do not require high voltage for their operation and are powered by the car's on-board network;
  • due to the low voltage, semiconductor sources are safe to use, even in the area of ​​​​the legs;
  • sources of this kind are economical and do not create a serious load on the on-board network of the VAZ-2110;
  • LED strip has a very high flexibility and allows you to bypass the contour of any shape;
  • Today, LED strips are available in all sorts of colors.

Of no small importance is the fact that you can make such a backlight with your own hands and connect it to the car network without deep knowledge in the field of electrical engineering.


Some design features

When implementing LED interior lighting with your own hands, you must first decide what and how to highlight.

Regarding the placement of the tape in the VAZ-2110 cabin, the backlight can be done everywhere, but it will bring the greatest benefit in the glove box and in the leg area, and for the rear seat its benefits are much greater. The illumination of door handles can also be safely attributed here.

As an element of decor, such tuning is best done on air duct grilles, it looks good as door lighting with a logo, as well as car door lighting around their perimeter.

Sets the type of inclusion of individual elements of the backlight, including in the area of ​​​​the legs. The easiest option is to permanently connect it to the on-board electrical network. However, the most functional will be a separate easily accessible switch, which will turn on the decorative lighting of the door lighting with the logo, or the illumination of the footwell area, only at night.

It is impossible to give general recommendations on choosing the color of the glow, with the exception of the obvious provision that it should be in harmony with the color scheme of the illuminated components of the VAZ-2110 cabin.

Used tools and materials

When implementing any kind of internal lighting with your own hands, simple tools and consumables are used.

  1. Of the tools for installation, you will need pliers, a sharp knife, scissors, a soldering iron.
  2. Consumables are tin and rosin for soldering, one or more terminal blocks, screw terminals, and a toggle switch or button with fixation.

The LED strip is sold by length, so the necessary measurements should be made in advance.

During installation, the individual lighting components are connected to each other by a flexible (multi-wire) cable, the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe cores of which should be 1 square millimeter. Places of soldering and connection of contacts are closed with electrical tape. As a means of monitoring the correct installation, a conventional multimeter is used.

Features of mounting LED strip

Installing the LED strip in the leg area and in other places is carried out with glue. When forming the desired length of the tape, it is cut with scissors, the cut must be made strictly according to the marks of a round or oval shape.

Wires are soldered to the tape segments, at the ends of which terminals are installed. All exposed wiring must be wrapped with electrical tape. The place of installation of the tape is wiped with any degreasing liquid in order to ensure the strength of the fastening.

It is necessary to connect the tape to the electrical network of the car in compliance with the polarity.

Other types of backlight

The so-called laser illumination appeared relatively recently. It is a miniature optical projector. It is installed on the lower narrow surface of the door, turns on when it is opened, and forms a logo on the ground right under the door.

Due to the relatively small dimensions of the projector, laser illumination does not cause big problems during installation.

Neon interior lighting is implemented by installing non-new light sources, differs from other types in its high brightness. Installation of a neon lamp is carried out on a mounting bracket under the dashboard, with fixation in the working position with plastic tightening clamps.

A regular connector is cut off from the power wires, then these wires are connected to the door open sensor and to the interior light switch. The wires are routed under the mats and behind the trim, which provides the necessary level of aesthetics and protection.

One of the most common types of car modifications is additional lighting. With its help, you can create a unique, completely individual image that will undoubtedly attract the attention of others.

Of course, you can choose from many ready-made options, or resort to the help of professionals. However, if you have certain skills, creating additional lighting in your car on your own will cost much less, and besides, it will allow you to do everything exactly the way you want. Therefore, we will talk about creating lighting in the car with our own hands.

Interior lighting types

Do-it-yourself lighting in the car interior should begin with the choice of lamps. Each of these options has its advantages and disadvantages, but today LEDs are used more and more. And this is due to the following benefits:

  • Safer than neon lamps - cannot cause fire if damaged, stronger, does not contain mercury;
  • Less electricity consumption;
  • Easier to install and use;
  • The light can be directed in the right direction.
  • In addition, diode tapes become cheaper every year, which also contributes to their popularization.

Interior lighting planning

Before you start to implement the backlight in the car with your own hands,it is worth at least roughly estimating the scheme for installing additional lighting. This is one of the main advantages of creating a backlight for a car with your own hands - the ability to do everything based on individual wishes. Think about where you would like to create additional lighting, how you plan to power it, etc.

Most often, the backlight is placed in the following places:

  • Under the glove compartment by the front passenger;
  • Under the dashboard of the driver;
  • In the luggage compartment;
  • Beside the rear seats.

LED-backlight can be powered even from the cigarette lighter, and of course you can connect it directly to the battery.

It is important enough to remember that in such things the main thing is to be careful not to overdo it with the intensity of the light. Creating a beautiful and “polite” interior lighting with your own hands requires a good sense of taste and moderation.

In addition, it is necessary to consider ways to turn on the interior lighting of the car. The most popular are the following three options:

  • Switching on from the button;
  • Switching on when opening doors or trunk;
  • Activation of the backlight when the ignition is turned on.

What do you need to install interior lighting with your own hands?

After you have chosen the layout of the LED strips, chosen their color, you need to ensure that you have all the tools and materials that you need to create the backlight in the car with your own hands, namely:

  • pliers;
  • Soldering iron for 220V;
  • Rosin and tin;
  • Stationery knife;
  • LEDs;
  • Adhesive for fixing the tape;
  • Means for degreasing surfaces;
  • Indicator;
  • Multimeter;
  • Cable;
  • Switch;
  • Screwdriver Set;
  • Terminal blocks for fixing wires;
  • Tubes, heat shrink, electrical tape for cable insulation.

Do-it-yourself interior lighting installation

First, you need to measure the right amount of LED strip and cut it into special marks. Next, you need to solder the diodes to the wires of the desired length, the resulting contacts must be insulated and the terminals placed on them. For additional protection of the wires, it makes sense to place them in flexible tubes.

The next step in creating polite interior lighting with your own hands is to install LED strips in the right places. To do this, first you need to degrease the surfaces to which you will stick the diodes after applying the degreasing liquid, you need to wait from three to five minutes. Most LED strips come with an adhesive backing, but it's best to use glue as well.

During the installation of LED strips, it is extremely important to monitor exactly where the light will be directed. Lighting should not hit the driver’s eyes, moreover, the resulting result will depend on the direction of the light. Therefore, before gluing it, it makes sense to experiment with the location of the diode tapes.

Wires must be laid under the floor of the car. You can connect to the standard wiring in different places, such a place can be a fuse box. In addition, the power supply for the LEDs can also be routed using existing lights, etc. In addition to connecting to the car battery to provide power, you need to connect the backlight to the "ground", that is, solder one of the wires to the car body (but only to clean metal without dirt, rust, paint).

In any case, when installing the car interior lighting with your own hands, you must first take into account the features of the internal wiring of your car.

Regular car interior lighting is just as necessary at night as air conditioning in hot weather or windshield wipers in the rain. With lighting, it will be easier to find the necessary little things. A number of people with backlight in the cabin get tired more slowly and concentrate better on the road. Additional lighting is also a way to make your vehicle unique, not like hundreds of thousands of other cars.

Why do you need additional lighting

The feeling of comfort in the car interior largely depends on the quality of the interior lighting. The need for soft, non-irritating backlighting is especially relevant when traveling at night, when you need to check a map, write something in a notebook, get important little things out of the glove compartment or find objects that have fallen on the floor.

Additional lighting has an important aesthetic value. It creates a unique design of the interior of the car, distinguishes it from similar vehicles. This lighting can be synchronized with a subwoofer, as a result of which the LEDs will pulsate and change colors to the beat of the music. Despite the important role that is assigned to the interior lighting of the car, the standard lighting system in some car models leaves much to be desired, so you have to redo it yourself.

Backlight Options

The modern car accessories market offers two lighting options: neon and LED. These lighting options are installed either separately or combined with each other, highlighting part of the interior with neon, part with LEDs.

Neon lighting is found in the form of lamps or flexible cord. Lamps emit a bright, even light, but are afraid of mechanical damage and often burn out with intensive use. The flexible tape is more practical, it is easy to mount in the cabin, suitable for highlighting uneven and embossed surfaces, it does not break and consumes little electricity.

LED backlighting is becoming more and more popular, which is characterized by the following advantages:

  • flexible design;
  • compact dimensions;
  • ease of installation;
  • convenient form of purchase (meter);
  • low sensitivity to mechanical damage;
  • extended service life;
  • the ability to change the color of the light flux (in RGB tapes).

Due to its compact size, the LED strip can be glued to small interior elements: handles, cigarette lighter, steering wheel trim. With its help, you can get interesting lighting effects, ranging from smooth turning on and off the backlight, ending with transitions between several colors.

IMPORTANT! The color of the backlight should be in harmony with the color of the interior. The result and quality of the glow depends on the correct choice of color.

Places for installation

In the interior of the car, you can highlight anything. Most often, additional lighting sources are installed on the following elements:

  • in the glove compartment;
  • under the seats
  • on the doors;
  • on faithful hands;
  • under the dashboard of the driver;
  • under the glove box;
  • at the ignition lock;
  • in the trunk.

For tuning small elements (ignition switch, door handles), single diodes are used, diode tapes are glued to larger surfaces.

Tools and materials

Before purchasing the necessary tools and materials, you need to decide on the installation location of the backlight and make the appropriate measurements. To install you will need:

  • single diodes for spot lighting;
  • LED strip (if you plan to highlight the ceiling, instrument panels, space under your feet);
  • set of wires (3-5 m);
  • heat-shrink tubing;
  • any degreaser;
  • insulating tape;
  • glue "Moment";
  • soldering iron;
  • scissors;
  • Dimmer;
  • Screwdriver Set;
  • tools that are listed in the backlight instructions.

LED strip is sold by the meter. It can be bought at the automotive market or at a specialized spare parts store. Experts recommend not saving on the quality of the tape and purchasing good LEDs.

ATTENTION! It's better to buy tape with a small margin than to find out at the last moment that there is not enough of it.

If you do not want to suffer with measurements, soldering and insulating wires, you can look for kits that are ready to connect. They include LED strips with wires soldered on the edges. Such strips are fixed in the right place and connected to the power supply.

Setting different lighting options

Point Diodes

A resistor is soldered to one of the legs of the diode. Next, solder the wires and wrap the open wiring with electrical tape. At a distance of about 20 cm, a terminal connection is made. The LEDs are ready to install.

Now prepare a place for installation. If we are talking about interior handles, then you will need to remove the trim and make a small hole at the installation site. The hole should be of such a diameter that the diode is held quite tightly in it. If desired, it will be possible to glue the diode with Moment glue.

The wiring is pulled under the trim into the passenger compartment so that it can later be connected. In the same way, point diodes are installed anywhere in the cabin.

LED Strip Light

It is not difficult to install LED lighting in the car interior. The place of the intended installation is measured and the tape is cut to the appropriate length. The incisions are made with scissors along special membranes.

ATTENTION! If the tape is taken more than necessary, it will not fix well and will sag in the future. Therefore, it is better to cut a little less tape than planned.

Solder the wiring to the edges of the prepared segments, check the operability of the structure by connecting it to power, and then proceed to installation. For the best adhesion of the tape to the plastic surface, the attachment point of the tape is degreased. To do this, the degreaser is applied to a rag, wipe the desired area and leave it for 3-5 minutes until completely dry. After that, the protective film is removed from the LED strip and the strip is glued in the right place. If the tape does not have a protective film and a sticky surface, then Moment glue is required for its installation.

The algorithm described above is suitable for mounting lighting on straight surfaces. If you need to install the backlight on a section with a bend, you will have to tinker. The fact is that bending the LED strip is not desirable even at an angle of 90 degrees. Therefore, you will need to cut off two pieces of the desired length, clean the edges and solder them at the folds. A heat shrink tube is put on the place of soldering and heated. Solder the wires to the outer edge of the LED strip, insulate them and install the tape in the right place.

neon lamps

Neon lamps should be installed in places where the risk of mechanical damage is reduced to zero. For example, to illuminate the engine compartment. For installation, you will need the following tools and materials:

  • neon lamps;
  • aluminum corner;
  • kapron clamps for fastening;
  • self-tapping screws.

If the lamp has a connector for connecting to the cigarette lighter, it is cut off and the contacts are cleaned. A piece is sawn off from the aluminum corner, which coincides in length with the lamp. The corner is screwed under the torpedo, neon lamps are attached to it with the help of clamps. In the same way, the lamps are attached under the glove compartment and under the rear seats. The wiring is hidden under the car's upholstery and stretched to the torpedo.

Backlight connection

There are different options for connecting the backlight. Most often, a cigarette lighter or interior light is used for this purpose.

If the backlight is connected to the cigarette lighter, then “+” is connected to the “+” of the cigarette lighter, and “-” to any place on the car body. To connect the backlight to the interior lighting, you will need to remove the cover and connect "+" to the white wire, and "-" to the red one. For the effect of smooth turning on and off the backlight, a dimmer is additionally connected to the system.

As for the neon lighting, it is powered by a specially installed transformer from the battery. You need to connect a switch to the battery, and then put a fuse on the entire backlight. The maximum distance from the fuse to the positive battery terminal is 45 cm.

The wire is best pulled through a hole in the body, between the engine or interior. To prevent sharp edges from cutting the cable, they are neutralized with soft rubber rings of a suitable diameter.

Now connect the second wire to the corresponding battery terminal. It is either pulled along the same route as the first one, or simply connected to the body of the machine. Then turn on the system and check its performance.

This completes the installation of the car interior lighting with your own hands. It does not require any special skills and abilities. The main thing is to stock up on the necessary materials, tools and show a little perseverance and patience.

LED interior lighting is more popular today than ever. In the interior of any modern car, there are many different light sources. At a minimum, the cabin has a central light located on the ceiling, as well as a "navigator" light located in front of the ceiling, in front of the windshield. In addition, in the passenger compartment there may be lamps in lamps located in cosmetic mirrors, in the illumination of the glove box (glove box), in lighting the trunk, thresholds, leg area, etc.

For all these lighting fixtures, 95% of cars use two types of lamps:

  • baseless lamps marked W5W (or, according to other classifiers, T10)
  • soffit lamps marked C5W / C10W (or, according to other classifiers, festoon - festoon)
The remaining 5% falls on lamps marked T4W, the selection principle of which is the same as for W5W lamps.

But even in the two most common types of lamps, it is not surprising to get confused, since our catalog of LED car lamps contains more than 20 models of each type. Let's try to figure out which models of LED lamps are suitable for the interior of your car.

Plinth type

Choosing LED lamps for car interior lighting is not difficult. On the main page of our store, select the make and model of your car, then open the "interior lighting" subsection. If you did not find your car in the catalog, or the "interior lighting" subsection for the car model you are interested in is not filled, then it will not be difficult to choose LED lamps for interior lighting on your own.

The most reliable way to find out the type of bulbs used in your car lights is to open the domes and remove the stock bulbs. If you see that the lamp is entirely glass with a flat base about a centimeter wide with metal antennae, then you have a W5W baseless lamp:

This small incandescent lamp has a power of 5 watts and a luminous flux of approximately 50 lumens (incandescent lamp characteristics are taken from Osram's automotive lamp catalogue). To replace this obsolete incandescent lamp in all respects, you can choose a modern, brighter and more efficient LED lamp in the section.

If you see a lamp with two metal cones at the ends, then in front of you is a soffit (it is also a double-ended) lamp.

With this lamp, it is important to measure the distance between the extreme points of the socles. If the length of the lamp does not exceed 37 mm, then this is a lamp marked C5W, the power of such an incandescent lamp is 5 watts, and its luminous flux is approximately 45 lm. If the length of the lamp is more than 37 mm, then this is a C10W lamp, its power is 10 watts, and the luminous flux is about 100 lm. On our website, the length of C5W lamps is indicated by the last number in the name of the LED lamp. That is, for example, the F-4s50f31 lamp is 31 mm long, and the F-6s50f42 lamp is 42 mm long. You can select lamps of this type in the section.

If the lamp is a glass body with a cylindrical metal base, then this is a T4W lamp:

The power of such a lamp is 4 watts, the luminous flux is about 35 Lm, you can choose a replacement for it in the section.

The space inside the lamp

After the desired type of lamp is determined, it is necessary to inspect the interior lamp itself. When choosing soffit LED lamps C5W pay attention to the length of the lamp as well as the space inside the saloon lamp. If there is not much space around the standard lamp, as for example in this case:

then it makes sense to choose a narrow lamp.

If there is enough space and a wider LED lamp will fit in the passenger compartment or trunk lamp, then you can put wider and much brighter lamps.

Larger LED lamps provide uniform light over the entire area of ​​​​the lamp, good illumination of the entire diffuser area, that is, they solve the well-known "light point" problem.

The luminaire in which it is installed baseless LED lamp W5W may be of various shapes and sizes. The first thing you need to pay attention to is the location of the lamp inside the lamp. If the lamp inside the ceiling is parallel to the plane of the diffuser, i.e. in other words, sideways, as in these photos:


It is better to stay on LED side-glow lamps, for example:

In this case, the entire luminous flux of the lamp will be directed in the right direction, and not illuminate the walls of the interior lamp in vain, as in this photo ...

In addition, it is important here to evaluate the space inside the luminaire and, if possible, choose a larger LED lamp for better illumination of the entire diffuser. A good example of choosing bright LED lamps for interior lighting:

In the case when the lamp in the luminaire is located perpendicular to the surface of the diffuser, and the space inside it is very limited, as, for example, in this salon luminaire:

And if there is enough space in the interior lamp, then there is a choice: put small LED lamps of a more or less standard size, as shown above, or put larger, slightly unusual LED lamps like these:

with high brightness and giving a great effect of bright, diffused light.

Lamp brightness and color

In addition to the external shape and size of the LED lamp, it is necessary to take into account its purpose, that is, where exactly the LED lamp will be installed and what it should illuminate.

Lamps "navigator" light designed for reading in the cabin, for example, a road map. This means that the light in them should be enough for reading, but at the same time, the light should not be excessive, so as not to blind the eyes. For reading, it is better to choose a white or natural white color of the glow. The optimal indicator of the luminous flux in this case is 100-150 Lm.

The central interior light creates general lighting inside the car. It is logical to put a white LED lamp in it with a maximum luminous flux so that there are no dark corners in the cabin. But if you are not a fan of classic solutions, then you can put colored LED lamps, for example, or and make yourself blue, red, green or even pink light in the cabin, which looks very unusual.


The light in the cosmetic mirrors located in the sun visors should not be too bright, because during the use of the mirror the lamp will shine directly into the eyes. Comfortable luminous flux in this case is 25-70 Lm. At the same time, the lamps should illuminate the face well, which means that the light should be pure white.

Lighting of the leg area, glove box and trunk should be such that not a single detail is lost in the depths of the car. Here you can not skimp on the light and put in these, usually small lamps, the brightest LED lamps:

The bright light of such LED lamps will be especially useful when searching for a dropped phone or lipstick in the glove compartment.

LED illumination of doors or thresholds performs two important functions. Firstly, it illuminates the space in front of you when you get out of the car, and secondly, it indicates an open door in the dark, making it more visible to other road users. In the lamps located in the doors, you can install LED lamps of any color and brightness, to your taste.


Ready-made lamp sets

As you can see, when choosing LED lamps for the salon on your own, it is necessary to take into account many nuances. If you don't want to worry about lumen output, markings and lamp configurations, then choose from one of our over 100 pre-made LED lamp kits, custom-made for a particular car model.

The lamps in this set exactly repeat the interior space of the interior and trunk lamps of this car, flood the lamp diffusers with light as evenly as possible, and in addition, they have light dimmers and a lifetime warranty! You can choose a set for lighting the interior of your car in the section.
