Here is a quick write up, I have the two mounted in the rear window along with a pair in front behind the grill. The lights came from LED Outfitters and started out by buying a SEM4 and a LNR6 to see which one I thought would be better. I choose the LNR6 because I thought that the six different LED with in the head showed the different patterns better. At the installing the 4 LNR6 lights I went back and tried the SEM4 for the fun of it and kink of wish I would have went whit them, they seem to be brighter because of the way the lens is made. Looking at LED Outfitters site today I see that they have some new products, the DaMeGa ELEMENT lights look like they may good amount of light.
To mount the rear lights I used a piece of aluminum angle bolted to the child safety restraint behind the head rest. The fronts are mounted to a piece of sheet metal held on by the lower grill bolts. At the time of install the only multi conductor wire I could find locally was sprinkler wire which I got from Lowes. The only problem with it is that it is solid wire, I would prefer to have stranded wire. For power I had a cigarette lighter plug with a on/off switch and to switch patterns I just have a momentary switch at the end of a wire laying in the glove box. When I get some time and warmer weather I want to replace the solid conductor wire and place the on/off and pattern select switch on the front side of the Up Lifter switch housing. I am also planning on adding a second pattern select switch just inside the rear door so I can see the lights when I pushing the button.
I have also order some other parts and looking at placing amber light is the Third Brake Light. I should have them in time to install for SnoBall, I already ran the wire for them when I installed my radio antenna.
