Actually the whole set-up was pretty easy. The lights in the trunk are some LED strips that I got from Wal Mart. They're really small but BRIGHT, so they were perfect for what I wanted to do. I routed the wiring through the trunk lid and out the same hole that the wiring harness for the taillights and the license plate lights comes through. I've also have 3 underneath, shining down into the trunk. One on each side of the trunk where there's just a little bit of an overhang to stick an LED strip to, and one in the center, underneath the center break light. I hid and the wiring inside the panels and the interior pieces and connected them all to a distribution block that's hidden and ran a single wire from the positive output on my amp to the block. As far as the lights in the front, I connected 2 small neon tubes together and screwed them into the plastic covers that hide the seat rail bolts and connected them to a switch. I hope some of that helps

So this weekend I made a little trip up to Portland to go to a meet at Forged Performance in Troutdale and it was pretty awesome! Had a lot of fun, met some cool people, saw some great cars, but sadly, I had the only CB there. Enjoy!

Fixing some issues with the CB a couple of days before the journey....


The day of the meet, cleaning the car, and guess what I've got sitting next to me lol....


Cars at the meet....














Cars in the shop....








I've got more pics coming, but they're on my GF's IPhone, so hopefully I'll get those up soon.

super awesome!!! i got a couple of SMT LED strips in my car 2 with the 3M adhesive tape...that all looks so sick so then the interior neons you got you hooked them up with a relay, inline fuse and holder and a rocker switch somewhere? is that what you did? cause i wanna do the same however i want my LED Strips to light up when i open the door i have a fascination with lights TRUST ME lol thats what attracted to me to your car. oh and BTW i know this is kinda but i was hoping if you knew by any chance the type of bulb name or color or any information in regards to the mint green light that we have in our ash trays for the cb7 cause im trying to figure out what color or bulb watt voltage whatever is cause i kinda have a little project i wanna do

Funny story about this meet. When I got into the parking lot and registered, some of the people were standing arouns and just looking at my CB. As I was passing the group, heading to my parking spot, I overheard one of the guys in the group say, " He's just here to show off his intake and exhaust," and started the chuckle. So I parked, popped open my hood and went around and checked-out everyone elses cars and mingled a bit. After a little while, the same guy made it to my car and said, "Wow. It's actually really clean."

You gotta love the haters!

Oh, P.S. if your bra ends up missing, i didn't take it.
