Got it in my Mazda3 and looks awesome! thx for tutorial dude :)
Thanks mate. Glad that you got yours installed ;)
Outstanding job!. Thank you very much for sharing your experience with the rest of the world 🗺. I wish you great fortune.
appreciate it mate.
I was able to keep the wire from inside the interior going out on the rubber trim outside the door, that would make it more neat and wires not running over the door rubber edges, but it's very hard to do it. took me few hours because it's hard to lurk inside Mazda 3 trimmings.
Thanks for sharing. Maybe you can make.a video on that.. ;)
that trick with the wire is maaad sick ngl
haha
Nice! I need someone to do this for me lol
Lol! You can do it mate ;) It is pretty and its fun.. It is fun doing it yourself.
How long did it take?
@@patriciaj16 my mechanic did it for me just ask them and they will do it all you have to do it buy the lights and the inverter thingy lol.
Hi, in which Fuse plug did you put it in?
Can I get the Number
I’d like to do this mod too! Kaso i don’t know a thing about electrical, fuses and what not. 😆
The fuse comes with the LED kit ;)
@@nate86diy43 I shot you a message on instagram. I could use help understanding how go from the charging port that the kit came with to the fuse tap.
What wheels are those they look sick
@@djurofaca thanks mate. BBS FIR
I have the same car, how did you change the A/C knobs buttons? They look fancy and cool Thank you
hey mate, the knobs is stock. I did not change
How did you connect the power cables to a power source???
i tapped to the Ignition fuse.
If you have a light in your glove box you can tap into that wire for it.
I just subbed up to your channel 👍
the current converter beeps pls help
do you have An updated link, id like to buy. or do you have kit recommened from amazon?
Hi there. I think the seller might taken down, however you could search in Amazon and/or Aliexpress "RGB Ambient Car lighting".
Why run the wires to the engine bay when theres a fuse box inside?
Hi Mate, because I wanted the Ambient to light up when the car is running completely. I could tap to one of the fuse box inside but, I would have created a separate switch, which I did not want to. So yeah ;) so tapping onto the ignition fuse is alright with me.
@@nate86diy43 gotcha, I installed a dashcam into one of the fuses on the interior, and it only powers up when the ignition is fully on, thought I could do something similar with the ambient lights. Thanks for the tip!
So it looks like you tapped into the ignition fuse box. Any reason why you did this over the interior fuse box?
I hope this video can help you with your ambient lighting install :)
I seen another guy tap into his headlight fuse and it worked just fine. Which makes more sense to me because the guy said the lights are barely visible during the day so it makes sense for them to turn on around the time your gonna need your headlights.
This gentleman’s instal was cleaner. However neither of them went into details about the fuses :( so I’m kinda lost there.
@@jonnysquirrels thanks for sharing. It is entirely depending of ones preference. as for me, well I liked switched on all the time. There are others that lights on when the door is open, some others as DRLs some mainly for parkLight. So question for you, where do you want yours to be installed? ;)
Very nice, looks great man! How did you get the orange around your Mazda logo and interior pieces?
Appreciate it mate. I vinyl wrapped those with Satin orange.
@@nate86diy43 by any chance, do you have a video on how you wrapped it??
@@rocioramos8235 Hi mate, I can film it if I were to rewrap it :)
Where did you get all of your orange trim pieces?
I wrapped them :)
Did you use all 6 leds points? I see it says there’s 6 in 1 or did u only connect 3 of them?
Will be installing the remaining leds to my rear doors. I might video or maybe not.
Nate86 DIY would like to see that! keep up the good work! 😀
@@GeneralHawx I'll be more than happy to video record it ;)
@@GeneralHawx ua-cam.com/video/T1EfplfeoPA/v-deo.html Here you mate. Enjoy the Vid.
I just subbed up
appreciate it mate
is there one for cx-5?
Yes you. The RGB strips is universal, it is applicable to any vehicle.
I have mazda 3 2008 my trunk light it's not working I change the bulb but still not working I guest I not the fuse because i did not see any individual fuse for that I only saw 15a interior lights... Can u help me please?
I am not really sure why your trunk light is not working considering changing it to a new one. Do you have a light tester?
I’m so confused about how to put into the fuses
you may use a fuse Tap
thats alot of work. hahaha
Yeah mate, alot of work if you are doing it alone. hehe
Ask your mechanic to do It
