GB: Door Sill LED's???

GB OFFER CLOSED!!


Hey, I'm sure most of you have seen the pics of my door sills with the LED's. If you haven't here you go:


Before:


After:









I'm wondering if anyone is interested in a GB on it. If it goes through, I WILL be doing a DIY on it. Here's the catch. The company that make them USUALLY only sells them to LARGE clients, like hotel chains. Therefore, he says that he's going to need at least 15 guys that are interested. Here are some pics of the actual product:









The LED strip come in 2 sizes:

6mm wide with 24 LED's
Retail: $23
GB price: $17

12mm wide with 45 LED's
Retail: $29
GB price: $22


Each strip come with electical connectors and is 1/2 a meter long.(each strip has markings of where to cut if 1/2 meter is too long) Each strip IS WATERPROOF!!!




*****prices are estimates right now. Final prices will be determined by the number of buyers.*****



Please reply by.......Jan 22nd.

What are you trying to do?? What you need for door sill lights are:

4 x 6mm LED strips (12 inches long each)

That's it! 4 strips for all doors. probably 2 strips if you want them lighting the interior, like footlights and 2-3 strips if you want the trunk/engine bay lit.


All i've got is 1 - 6mm strip at each door.
