Original Interior

Arrival: I received this kit in a timely fashion, it was delivered on time (2-days with prime membership). It came nicely packed in an amazon box with sufficient packaging air bags which ensured safe travels. Kit itself came in its own retail box that had two separate boxes inside where all the components were separated. One box had the lights, remotes, batteries, receiver. While the other box had all the extension cables, zip ties, light mount brackets. Installation: This kit offers two way of installation it can be set up to plug straight into a cigarette litter or it can be hard wired into a fuse box for a hidden cord clean look. I first tested all the LED strips using the cigarette rout to ensure that everything worked before I spent my time installing everything. I drive a 2001 Ford Windstar (Minivan) I installed two of the strips up front under the steering wheel control housing, and under the glove box housing. Each LED strip has an adhesive strip on the back to allow for easy installation however I live in North Dakota and when I received my kit I was excited to install it and at the time our high for the day was a whopping -10 F. Im sure I could have used the adhesive back and been just fine, but i wanted to play it safe just in case it was to cold so i used the included zip ties and mounting brackets to install my lights and it work flawlessly. Depending on how well they stay installed if I have to I can go back when it warms up and install them using the adhesive strips if i please. I installed the last two strips under my driver and passenger seat in the back of my van and they look amazing. As I mentioned this kit includes a fuse splicing wire that allows you to connect the kit straight into the vehicle that will allow it to turn on and off with your vehicle. I tried to connect mine using the fuse panel but i was not have much luck at the time. After trying a couple different fuse location with no luck I quit trying due to the fact as i mentioned it was -10F up here in North Dakota. When it warms up I do plan to try and hook it up to my fuse panel when I'm able to last more than 5 minutes outside with out having to go in and warm up my hands. So i have it installed using the cigarette lighter with all my cords and head unit ran behind my stereo so its still fairly clean looking. Also when it warms up later this spring or summer I plan to run all of my cord under my carpet I did the same thing when I installed my sub-woofers ( two 12" subs) and it is fairly easy if you have the time. Remotes: Two remotes were included in the kit one remove is about the size of a credit card that has all of the colors on it and easy to switch between each one, along with the setting to either breath through all of the colors or use the music setting to all the colors to beat to the tune of the song. the second remote is a keychain style that has four buttons on it one turns it on and off, the second one adjusts the brightness of the light, the third controls what color is being displayed, and the fourth switches between color mode, breath mode, and color mode. The mini screwdriver that came with to put the battery in the remote was a bit too small, i used my own screwdriver that i had which was a little bigger and made it much easier to get the tiny screws out and back in. The Quality: The quality of these lights are amazing, lit comes with everything you need to install it yourself. The lights are crisp and clean and offer a stunning glow. I nice feature is that you can control the overall brightness of the lights so they don't distract you when driving down the highway. Summary: These lights are awesome and met my expectation all the way. I've only had them for a few days and everyone who has seen them has asked me where I got them and were amazed with how easy and clean they looked. This OPT7 kit definitely make your vehicle stand out from the rest just be prepared for people to ask you questions about them because your vehicle will be the talk of the group.

I bought these for the footwells in my 2007 Honda Accord. Installation was a breeze - I opted for the fuse tap option instead of the cig lighter plug, running the cables underneath plastic trim panels and mounting the LED strips so you can't see them or their cables. "stealth", as some would say... My hope was to install the kit in such a way that someone whose never been in a 07' Accord before might either not notice the ambient lighting or simply think "hmm... who would have think that would be a stock option on a 9 year old car...". That is, of course, only applicable if you're not using strobe mode... LED strips: the strips themselves are well put-together, and of a good quality. The adhesive backing is superb. I would buy these again for other projects if they just have the strips available for sale... LED strip extensions: The extension cables provided by OPT7 are plenty long enough to mount the strips pretty much wherever you want, and that includes the extra length needed to fish them under plastic trim panels to get there. Use some of the zip ties they provide to secure the cables so they don't rattle around, and to secure the extra cabling you're probably going to have left over from the lines leading to the front footwells. Light quality: the light is a nice even ambient light - exactly what I wanted. The brightness adjustability is nice for cruising on an empty highway since you can tone it down. Door-assist feature: the idea of this feature is that the LED controller has a second power line that goes to something that turns on with the door courtesy lights. The LED strips turn on *white* with the doors open! This is pretty cool, and certainly a welcomed feature. However, it turns out that the main power line has to be on to power the LED strips for it to work. In other words, if your fuse tap or cigarette lighter turns on with the ignition, the door-assist feature won't work unless the ignition is on - the second power line is just a sensor and won't power the strips on. *THAT BEING SAID*, if you really want the door-assist white light to come on with the doors even if the ignition power is off, you could make a little harness with some relays (I may do this myself). I ended up fishing the second power line up above the headliner to wire it directly to the dome light - this makes the door-assist turn the LED's white when the dome is on whether the doors are open or you manually turned the dome on (useful for disabling the feature if you're at a drive-in?) You can see the effect of this in the video I'm including in this review. Remote controls: This kit actually comes with two (2) *different* remote controls. One is a controller with something like 24 buttons on it that gives you full control over the LED's color, fading, strobe, etc... The other controller is a 4-button "quick remote" that gives you ready access to the most common features like ON/OFF, brightness, color, and sound-mode. The 4-button remote is perfect to use without having to look down at the remote if you're on the road. Sound-activated: For when you want your car to be a rave, beating the photons out with the beat of your "sweet jams". It's a neat feature, but I don't use it much because its too "strobe-y" for my taste. If you plan on using this feature, you want to make sure you mount the controller either near a speaker or mounted to the same panel as a speaker, and that's just so you can tweak the sensitivity so its activated by the beat of the music and not the beat of the poorly maintained side roads in your New England town.... There are instructions on their website to adjust the sensitivity of the unit, but I haven't gotten around to it yet. Overall, this is an excellent kit for adding a nice "premium" feature to your older or base-model car. Installation is easy, the hardware is of a good quality, and if you're not sure if you want ambient lighting $45 is a great deal to try it out!

The lights install easily and have excellent cable length, brightness, and the remote works very well. Then these lights stopped working on my install with no notice. I contacted their support and they had me make a small video outlining the issue and send it to them. Without hesitation, they sent a replacement part and it lit my system back up perfectly. Im leaving the 5 starts because a products review should also include the way a company handles an issue such as the one above, and they did a 5 star job with it. Good product, great company.

Read this if you plan to use the Aux power wire for Door Assist feature!!! Installed in my 2014 Honda Civic SI This kit is very clean. LEDs are high quality and are enclosed in a plastic case so they won't get damaged easily. The kit comes with everything you need to install. Wires are plenty long, I had to more than enough and actually ended up zip tying most of them in a bundle to keep it clean. Lights are bright and the remote works well. Installation was pretty easy if you plan ahead but I had some issues with getting the aux "Door Assist" feature to work. More on that below. I used zip ties to install the strips so cannot comment on the adhesive backing that comes with them. Overall this is a very good kit. I only give it 4-stars due to some minor issues stated below: 1) The mini-ATM low profile fuse tap provided in the kit were too large for my fuse box. I had to file down the edges with a metal file to get it to fit. 2) The SoundSync feature that is supposed sync to your music does not seem very accurate. I tried adjusting the sensitivity but the lights just seem to flash randomly, not to the beat of the music. 3) The Aux power wire (Door Assist Feature)!!! This is the biggest gripe I have and I could have avoided a major headache if the kit instructions simply provided more info on this feature and how to set it up. The kicker: this aux "power" wire only acts as a switch and does not actually provide the power to the control box. This means that in order for the lights to come on white when you open the doors you have to have constant power applied via the main power input wire. If you wire it up this way you would need to use the remotes to turn the power off to the lights when you leave the car in order to not drain your battery. This is a pain in the ass in my opinion. I chose to wire my main unit power to the +12V Accessory so that the lights are on when I turn the key. This setup means that the Door Assist feature is not available...unless using some help from relays! I did some research online and ended up using a pair of SPDT relays that are triggered by the driver "door trigger" wire. One relay is triggered when the door opens and provides the Aux input with +12V power from fuse box. The other relay isolates my constant +12V fuse and +12V Accessory inputs. When this relay is not triggered (NO) my control box receives power from the +12V accessory fuse. When this relay is triggered by the door it provides power from the constant +12V source and the LEDs light up white. This allows me to not have to use the remotes to turn the lights on and off and provides the functionality of the door assist feature. It only works for the driver door now but if I wanted to tap into the passenger and rear door triggers I could do that later. Hopefully this information will save someone else a lot of trouble. Even with a lot of online research and reading forums it took a while for me to get this working.

My car actually came with ambient footwell lighting out of the factory, but it left a lot to be desired (wasn't bright at all, and didn't cover a lot of space). I looked at this product to really make the interior of my 2018 Civic Si Coupe pop, and it didn't disappoint! This kit enabled me to provide some eye-catching (yet tastefully executed) ambient lighting to the interior of my vehicle. // What impressed me: The number of install options that came with the kit was fantastic! In addition to the standard cigarette lighter attachment, you had various 12v connectors for direct wiring, and even proper fuse panel adapters (with fuses!). I chose to go with the cigarette lighter attachment because, on the 2018 Civic Si, the cigarette power port is hidden behind the center console. This meant that my installation could be nicely concealed, and would power on when the car's accessory mode is activated. I was able to successfully route and conceal the wires to each of the 4 lighting strips throughout the various front and center console molding. The brightness and range of display options was also a big plus. The remote control not only gives you a wide range of modes and colors, but also the ability to fine-tune each of these modes (including strobe and fade speed) as well as sound sensitivity. I don't really use the audio-reactive mode because it is actually very distracting, but it might look good if you're parked and you want to use the stereo on your car to entertain your friends. // What could be better: The adhesive that comes already attached to the strips isn't the strongest, so my recommendation is getting some of your own heavy-duty double-sided tape or a handful of 3M command strips and cut them down to size and use those instead. Also, while I LOVE to the range of colors available on this set, the colors in the purple and pink side of the spectrum are not brilliant. They're quite muted... so if you're trying to get a nice pink or purple out of this set, you may want to look into getting some matching purple/pink floor mats to help project this color better. I went with red to compliment the red accents in my car, and my red floor mats REALLY helped the color pop! // Tips for installation: A lot of people will tell you to direct wire the set or use the fuse attachment. I personally was a fan of the cigarette lighter option because on most modern cars this power plug is concealed enabling you to install the kit and have it virtually invisible anyway. Also, my car is new and still under warranty, which means if I have any electronics failure my warranty would be voided. Something to keep in mind for newer car owners. Using this attachment meant that my light came on when the accessory mode activated. If you want these light to only come on when the doors are open, you will need to wise it using the fuse attachments. For the two rear lighting strips, I bought a length of sticky back velcro. Because I attached these strips to the bottom of the seats in the back, the velcro was a fantastic solution to make it stick to the fabric on the underside of the seats. The adhesive on the sticky velcro, combined with the adhesive on the strip already forms a strong bond. Also, the fact that you are using velcro to attach the light means you can realign or reposition as many times as you'd like! As mentioned above, if you plan to adhere these strips directly to any plastic paneling (like I did for the front two strips), maybe look at buying your own 3M Command adhesive to provide better adhesion. // Overall: I'm extremely happy with this purchase. As you can see from the picture it really helps my vehicle pop, especially when tastefully applied. Kudos to the manufacturers. I may provide an update to this review after I've had the product for a while.

I have a 2006 Honda, Accord and decided I wanted to put in some accent lighting because I thought it mite look pretty cool. I saw the OPT7 on Amazon and most of the reviews were pretty favorable and the price was decent, so in January 2019, I decided to buy it. After the purchase, the item came fast, had instruction on how to install directly into the fuse box (along with connectors for three different types of fuses) and for those who did not want to tackle the fuse connection, it had a DC power hookup, along with several zip ties to help with the installation. I opted to wire the lights directly to the fuse box (ignition fuse) so I could better hide the wires and give it more of a professional looking install. The install took me between 4 and 5 hours, but once it was done, I was very pleased with the outcome! There are several colors to choose from and several features from a steady on color, to color fade in, strobe, and light reaction to music. I like the remote because it has a decent range and there's no need to download an app to your phone. In fact, my woman saw what the lights and decided she wanted them, so I installed a set in her vehicle as well. There are other brands out there, but for the money, I think this is a pretty good set. I will say that if you are not a do it yourselfer, with some amount of knowledge on how electricity works, find a professional to install them. You don't want to fry something in your vehicle that could cost you way more money than you can afford to spend. I have attached a video, but please bare with me because I am not a professional cinematographer. I hope this helps anyone thinking of making the purchase.

The system was a great for my 2004 Honda accord sedan. Of all the kits that I have used before this is by far the most user friendly I have seen in a very long time. I ran all the wires under the carpets and body panels so nothing was seen and used the fuse tap on the fuse box inside of the car. Between this process and finding the optimal place for all the strips to go, it took me about 3 hours. This includes running lights to under the car seat and having those wires run under the carpet. I can see how it would be also very easy for someone who didn't want to run the fuse tap and just use the 12V port in the car to have it done in 5 min. The light is impressively even and the remotes have an amazing range. I have the control box mounted under the panels and can still use the remote from at least 1 car length away. As an engineer I am very impressed with the build quality for the price. Installation tips: Insure that when you install it with the fuse tap you understand what you are tapping into. Some of the fuse position give you constant voltage even when the power is off on the car. Others will only provide power when the car is turned on. If you don't want to worry about accidentally pressing the power button on the remote and leaving the light on even though the car is off plug the fuse into something that only has 12V when the car is on. Best way is to use a multimeter and touch one to ground and the other to the fuse position and see which one changes from 0V to 12V when the car is turned on. Run all the wires to the correct location and have the LED strips in place before tucking and zip tying wires, otherwise you might pull on a connection to hard. Also when mounting it in the rear, make sure the wires don't get caught when the front seat is moving and if they are attached to the seat, insure there is enough wire to accommodate the movement of it. Issues: I only ran into a couple of issues. First off the mini fuse tap was a bit large so it requires a lot of effort to get it to fit into the slot. Also since the fuse tap is 90 degrees is does cover another slot for the fuses unless you find an open one at the end like I did. Probably could extend the tap so that fuse can be located just a tad down the line so the other locations don't get covered. The other problem I ran into is the small quick remote they give you. The C button or the color changing button doesn't do anything and seems to only change the color to one other color or other times I press it and it does nothing. It also bugs me a tad that the on and off button on it is labeled as A and B which could have just ass easily put something a bit more descriptive. However at this point I am just nit picking. Overall this product is something I would recommend and use again. Actually I plan on getting it for my girlfriends car later this month.

These LED lights are pretty good and shiny and really like the RGB, also like the remote for ease of use. The cable length is pretty good, no complaints on that. However the tape adhesion is very bad. It just wont stick on either side. The tape came off the LED strip so easily and wont stick back at all. Very disappointed. I bought some other 3M double sided tape and that did not work either. Now I have to buy 3M VHB (very high bond) tape and praying that it will work.

Received the long awaited package coming from the US to the UAE only to find out that the kit does not include the fuse adapters mentioned in the description of the item. "5 Minute Setup with plug & play car charger OR Advanced Setup with fuse adapters". May be worth mentioning that the adapters are not included? I now have to order them separately or source them from another store.

It works good but I bought the double kit when I should have bought the single kit oops lol

I chose to install these using the fuse box method as I wanted a clean installation with no cables visible. The results are incredible! Not only do they give a very rich colour, they are also made of very high quality material. The led strips are covered in a silicon resin which makes them flexible, but also dust proof, and probably semi water proof too! Also stops them from being damamged. Overall, a very high quality excellent kit!

Happy with the product...

Hi, The LED's are good when they work - one strip only displays green after unfortunately I only found out after I spent 2 hours mounting them in the car - contacted seller and they said send the kit back and get a new one - obviously do not want to spend 2 hours installing a new set again - not sure what to do now.
