I put the ones in the back on thier side with the led's facing the back seats. So the light was directed towards the back. The under dash ones were facing straight down. I would think the 9s would be too bright and cause a reflection on the windows at night.

Haha. I'm still here. I was waiting for a few different ideas for placement and what not. I will def go with the lights from that site. I know there are those flex ones and the straight ones. Do they give off the same amount of light? If so, then flex would be the best right? I'm going to be getting prob like 4 of the smaller flex ones in white and position them around the car. Now, can I wire them all together to that I only have on switch for them? Let me know. Thanks for the input people!!!!

Eh, mine don't. Mine just baraly cover up to my seat, and they are faced down. I was thinking of adding 2 more 9.5" under my rear ones for looks and to impress my friends and whatnot, but eh.. Its extra money I don't have right now lol. But in the future, its a possibilty .

My blue ones were angled down and at night Id get a little blue glase on the windows...nothing much or in the way, but I figured the 9s would be was worse. But I think the Blue are brighter than some others.

Did yall wire them to a switch or through your existing dome light wiring? Thats what idf like to figure out is where i can tap into the wiring so that when i open the doors/or any other time that the dome light would normally come on, the LEDs in the floor and dash would light up....

I know lights are illegal if they will be distracting so are the 4.5s all around pretty safe choices and not too flashy to attract the police attention?

Yea, just wire them either parallel or in a series. I'd go with series though, it'd be easier.
