I know how to hook them up, my question is what type of wire would be good to use to hook them up from the courtesy/dome lights?(preferably a kind found on Oznium so I can just order everything at once)
Also, for red LED's, which run at a lower max voltage then most of the other LED's(2.6 vs. 4), a resister would be needed for only four, correct? And for eight, it wouldn't be? Thanks for help, and I'm sorry if these were asked before, I searched and didn't see anything... |

Yea, it's always safer to put a resistor in there just in case. As far as wires go, almost any wire will work, i just used stuff lying around here. i ran into problems trying to use speaker wire, because it was just too big. it made it too hard to mount the LEDs. I'm not sure exactly what wire you can get from Phil, (The site seems to be down right now.) But almost anything will work.
