[QUOTE="ColdPlay, post: 1064310824, member: 93872"] Well, it appear to be. As a measure of precaution, always use a fuse or relay / proper masking when tinkering with live wire and make sure they're put in safe place. Underneath the floor carpet is a big no. Btw, I have done it on my daily ride, albeit in the engine bay. Having a bright engine bay is useful. I tap the line from battery (+) terminal with one 5v fuse. Another line tapped from the engine hood sensor so that the led stripe only turn on when the engine hood is lifted. I make sure the wires are adequately protected too by masking the connection and inserting 'em into a small hose...which serves as an aesthetic purpose as well. Lousy wiring job but it works :biggrin: Next DIY plan is led stripe on the door side which trigger when the door is open, with additional on/off switch just in case you drop something over there in the dark night...lol.
