So I put complete RGB LED's underneath my Marauder, including the wheel wells. Also built my own RGB LED rim lights and ran them all to the same remote/module. Also did the grill and custom RGB Fog lights (although cannot see in the video). Just wanted to share. FYI, I have the black 24's that have been on for about 3 years now. If you google Marauder on 24's you will see plenty of pics of it. Except now it glows in the dark ;) All lights were ordered on Ebay from China and materials bought at local hardware store. All in all, less than $125 total... Not counting the hours I spent installing.

I am sure many will have many negative comments to share. Just want to give a warm thanks in advance. Also, I have had my Marauder going on 9 years, so definitely time to make it stand out!!!

Look at the BRIGHT side. At least you don't have to worry about speed bumps and scraping the undercarriage hitting the lights.

And change the oil without the use of a lift or jack!!:beer:

Pretty cool for some of those night shots. A lot of places it's illegal to drive with those kind of lights on. But for pure photo aesthetics, I like it

Can't stop the signal...

Is their anyway you can take a photo of it driving with just the wheels lit up and not the undercarriage?

I actually have the factory spoiler freshly painted and ready to install. It's been on a shelf for 2 years. Still not sure if I want to do it.

For now I have everything running to a single module. I could easily re-wire the rims to their own module but it just easier to one. Keeps all the colors uniform.

This would have been cool some years ago... No one is checking for this now.
Around my way you wouldn't get any props on it... Just laughs.

Those rolling shots are pretty legit!!!

Don't worry about these old and crunchy dudes, always have to complain about something :lol:

I wanted 24's back when I first got it but decided against it just because of the issues I had with my wife's 20's.

Agreed. We don't even do this on the crotch rockets anymore. Too juvenile.

Difference years ago is people had to mount huge tube lights under their car and I guarantee their little 15-18" rims were not glowing. Now with the waterproof RGB Led strips, you can mount the lights literally anywhere, make them change any color, turn up and down the brightness, make them fade and strobe.

Come pull up next to me at a light and see who the heads turn for :cool: my money is on me. When random people take pictures of your car at stop lights and videos of your car on the highway, then open your mouth.

Oh and by the way "ChiTown", cute halo fog lights, I had those same ones 5 years ago.... (when I was juvenile)

So the saying goes "Haters gonna hate, Ain'ters gonna ain't"

It's all about the adults turning and taking pics of your car when they hear a whine from under the hood matched with parallel lines on the ground. Rainbow colors under wagon wheels are for children. :D

I think the lights look cool, not a fan of 24's. To each there own. Looks clean too! Like jwibbity said, some of these guys are against a lot of that kind of stuff, some even dont like it yet offer for sale a ambient rgb light kit to put in the interior[emoji6]

twix is the only candy with the cookie crunch.

The ambient interior kit is subtle and can't be seen by other drivers while the car is moving. Doesn't look like a circus driving down the road...........

Some people have taste.... too bad it's only in their mouth.

Some people like to stand out, some like to have club lights inside their car.

Some even like both. Like I said, to each their own
