So I bought a Streetglow Kit with all the different color changes and stuff and I was just wondering how people mounted the LED tubes under the car. Im looking for pictures here if possible. I jsut cant find anywhere to mount to, especially on the front. So post up them pics guys

 

I drilled holes in the frame. Did yours come with a mounting kit?

 

^^^Same...it came with bracket type dillys. then I had to drill about 8 holes for each of the side tubes, the front and back one's I ziptied to the frame.

 

^^^^ yup same here. i think that's pretty much the only way to attach them.

 

Don't use the plastic mounts. I had 3 or 4 on each tube and they all broke after a year. They got brittle.
I'm now using hose clamps which you can't see and they hold the tube closer to the frame.

I just realized you asked for pics, so I'll go climb under my little lady (the tib tongue.gif ) and get some shots for you if possible.

I apologize for the double post, but the edit button is not showing up for me for some reason... anyways, here's pictures...


That's a picture of one of the clips on the side LED's

Another shot of the side LED clip

I ziptied the rear ones up


And I ziptied the front ones to the grill like so ^

Hope these help, and again, sorry mods I see no edit button on my screen 02.gif

 

Alright thanks. I think Im going to go ahead and use hose clamps then because I was kind of wondering how well the plastic would hold up. Thanks for the input

 

Double Post isn't an issue doode, go read the ANNOUNCEMENTS section.

Why don't folks read?

 

Those are the same brackets I had. Mine broke after about a year. You dont want your tube dragging down the highway after the last one breaks.


If you get the hose clamps that have the slots ALL the way around, you can put a screw through one of the slots to mount it to the car. Then you clamp the tube with it.
