(the bright white on the door is the LED strip but i have a crappy camera so it just looks like a blur. in real life you see individual lights.)

I have a JBL MS-8 sound processor on the way. I might put it in the same place you have your amp mounted. Did you build the amp rack? Moar pics of the amp rack would be great!

Sr - they are an led strip. i took the silver plastic strip off the door dremmeled out the back and dremmeled a slit in it (freehand but somehow they match) then. mounted the lights behind it. then wiring was simple just dropped the + - wires down to the courtesy light. spliced into it so they go on and off when i open and close the doors :)

iammai - the mount is metal brackets that secure all the way down to two screws sticking up under all that foam. then mount a piece of wood to the metal and then the amp to the wood. it wobbles alot but it doesnt go anywhere and i have a couple thousand miles since install and driving on windy roads.

RJS I have had some LED mods in the back of my head for a while, I'll share Thursday but let's have a mod date. Didnt realize you had that many LEDs inside and out, might need some help.
