LED underbody

is there any LED underbody kits that wire in seriers (like the street glow gold series) and that you dont have to run all 4 wires into the engine compartment?

None that I know of run in series. I do however have LED underbodies.

They all plug into the distribution block, however ,the distribution block does not need to be in the engine bay. I have mine pretty much under the drivers seat where there is a bump up into the floor board so it stay pretty well protected.

The wire to go from the control panel (inside your car) to the distribution block (outside the car) is plenty long that you can mount either wherever you want.

BTW I have PlasmaGlow underbodies.

The distribution block plugs into the control box which has a wire for power and a wire for the ground. I have Liteglow LEDs on my car and like them much better than neons. Their brighter and use a lot less power.

Tubes wire to distribution block, distribution block to control box, control box to power switch, switch to battery...

Here's a half-ass pic...

^^ The blue text in my pic is supposed to say "some" not "so"

Also, if your curious, yes, the tubes can be different colors.

And on a side note, notice how I drew the wires coming from the front of both side tubes, and the left of the front and back tubes. THIS IS IMPORTANT!!! LED underbody kits can produce pretty patterns, if you want the patterns to match, the wires need to go the same direction as each other.

The instructions that come with the kit will explain if they need to be wired differenty then what I drew, but all the kits i've seen say to wire them this way.

Sprialling? It basically does anything you want it to. Strobes, Sprials, Runs, Beats to Music, Changes Colors, or any combination of anything. I may have the kit that Imamarine is talking about. But it does everything, you can choose between many colors, and it does wire in series.
