- LED lights can take a car audio or custom vehicle install and build from meh to wham! In the past car audio installers have used neons, cold cathode tubes, and other techniques, but with the wide variety of led strands available now we have some great options! Learn how I add them step by step along with some other how to tricks in this latest update for the jeep build!

Who checks in to TH-cam on Sundays?! Thanks for watching early notification squad!
I do ,,,, keep it up
CarAudioFabrication have you seen the crap they rerun over and over on TV? It's always good to check out what the guru of fabrication has done. 🖒
Haha good point
great work! and yes the led's pop!!
CarAudioFabrication what size acrylic did you Use keep up the good work mark!!!
I'm a big fan of these. Thanks so much for making these vids man. I used one of your vids to help make my first ported box for 2 10" mtx 5510's and they really pump. Little by little i'm increasing my range of tools and knowledge on how to use them, I recently got a plunge router(no table) but, in time i hope i get to this point. Keep up the good work!.
I’m jealous u have a router! One day, like u, I’ll own one!
Good video, Mark, again. I think as long as they are done right, LEDs are really a must! Your install looks great and can't wait to see it wrapped in vinyl!
Really like your work ethic and the quality of your builds and your videos. Keep up the good work!
The stuff your doing, and the quality of your videos is simply mind blowing. Ian extremely impressed with ALL the videos I've seen thusfar, and have in fact picked up some great ideas for my own build.
Thanks, and keep up the amazing work!
LEDs look great when they’re done correctly. This is a beautiful build. Thanks for posting.
Great job mark ... love this install . I’m sure you keep your customers very happy
your murdering this I stall bro. I love that your just a guy in his garage doing it. it makes me feel like I can and I attempt the stuff I learn. great channel bro
I think LED's can be very complimentary to a build. I added some to mine for some minor accent lighting. Although I have mine on a switch so I don't always have to have it on. Thanks for the great tutorials! Nice work!
I see CAF video ,, I like and then watch
now that is an amazing episode ,,, way to go buddy !!!
Beautiful work brother every time i see your vids im extremely impressed and motivated!
Awesome job! Love the detail you put into your builds.

Haha love all of your videos man! Your amazing I love car audio and you take it to a whole new level for me!
Loved the quick stop at the shop and a quick look at your gear in your car!
Keep it up :):):):)
Loving this fabrication, the LEDs look great, too many lights can get gaudy but this build is super clean and tasteful 👍🏻
If installed correctly LED's look great. Yours are awesome.
I always use LEDs in my car audio. and sometimes other places. the build looks great the mesh really make it come together.
That looks awesome, lots of attention to detail. I couldn't wrap my head around the mesh until i saw it finished, but it looks great! I am a bit of a show off, so I love LED lights in installs. Obviously, it has to make sense visually with the build, and should never take away from the actual audio equipment, but very cool with all that in place!
Love the LED’s 👍🏻 I’m in the middle of building my ICE install at the moment so this video was very useful, thanks 😎🤙🏻
I used the blue LEDs on my Pioneer amp rack and it looks awesome. Love the lights.
U r one of the best of the industry if not the best, I can't compliment on your talents enough
Great job Mark beautiful as always and love the progress keep up the great work ✌️
Looking so sick bro! And keep making your top notch videos.
Crazy. Every time I go to do a mod or upgrade,start my research.hit play.......you again!!! Subscribed!!! I'll try to catch up in your stuff.
Absolutely sick install! All the work you do is second to none. Great job and keep the the flawless work👏👏👏
Thank you!
Think that's the first time I've seen one of your custom systems play. Sounded good!!
That there's some good stuff man. You actually encouraged me to do a project for the 1st time in my f150. Thanks for dumbing down some of the work. Makes it a WHOLLLE LOT EASIER. AWESOME JOB GUYS !!!!
Another awesome video as always!:). I for one really like "tasteful" (not over done) lighting, such as what you did here!
Really smooth like allways mark! Thumbs up for LED!
i really like the neatness and detail to your work and designs 👍quality stuff
I Like them it looks sick
as long as they are not over used...LED lights can add a nice touch to an install ...great job!!!
Dude you're a beast...WAY above my level
First, let me say how delighted I am to have found this series. I love the commitment to craft. While I prefer a little subtler style, all these elements can be used at a lower key, and for purely functional (as opposed to decorative) purposes, with a high level of aesthetic appeal.
On a purely selfish note, I’ll say that I’m working on a Miata build, which means that I would love direction for good sound in a VERY small spaces, and very clean, simple appearance.
(Oh, and grammar nazi here-since LED stands for “light emitting diode”, “LED lights” is redundant 😜.
Looks awesome Mark!
Looks awesome. Great looking piece
Looks good 😎😎 great job 😎😎 much love and respect from Mexico
Absolutely clean job
I have to watch the videos, to make sure you will be the best person to do,and make a video build of my Project!!! Good videos and Great knowledge!
come out awesome thanks for the help and sharing
LED’s are awesome! This looks great!
Awesome I love the way leds look!!
Love l.e.ds I use them in a lot of my builds, and on my own vehicles as well!
I love LED lights as it brings more life to the install and equipment. I might add some to my install also LOL
Love them. Your good at what you do bro
no way these light bring out the beautiful designs ..we luv it
I myself love incorporating l.e.ds in my installs. I think they bring the finished product to a new level an make it stand out from the rest.
They a wicked luxury look to me, I own alpha Customs in fort Saint John bc, keep up the good work brother🤘🏼
hey man loved the build I own a jeep so it was very informative down fall my lay out is different used rockford speakers and amp as well jl audio sub and xd400/4 amp together they rock
Looks Excellent.
It looks really nice with light just adds that little touch to make you stand out from the rest at meets or even at car shows
I like led lights , looks good mark
I LOVE LEDs they're are best and I dont think they're too much at all!
thats a great install. I like the lights.
Great design ideas. Keep it going.
Love the LEDs very cool videos.
That's beautiful work
I love them!!
Led lights can be cool, as long as you dont over do it. You did a nice job and I noticed the same things that you stated in the video. Your making me thing about going some more led stuff. .
Very nice job. Professional
looks fantastic !!!!! I personally like the way LED's draw attention to a nice install
Thank you, I agree, can be used to draw the eye to different areas.
I have LED's installed on mine , along with acrylic panels on my amp racks but no where near the quality of work that you put out , all I have to work with is simple hand tools and a hand held router and jigsaw . did the sub boxes in vinyl to match the cars interior colors . now that I've seem your RGB LED's on yours I wish I had used them instead of just the Blue I used .
Great work skip!
Looks good man.
The LED's look good on some cars but really depends on the type of build and the look your going for IMHO. Great video Mark.
Nicely done.
I love lights especially sound activated
i love the design and look
great work!
very informative. thanks
That’s awesome work
By the way LED's are really awesome when combined with acrylic. To be honest, LED's are not always cool. Only when the build looks really sharp and clean, like yours. Great job dude!
Very well done thank you
nice job good install bro well explined
Great job
Love the look!
LED light, yes or no? My opion is what makes the customer happy. Great job.
Looking good man!!!!👍👍👍👍
I love the LED’s!!!
Damn man. Got it going on. Love it
Dude you do fantastic work..the led's look great.!! FYI you know how you pretty much do everything with the router table, imagine what you could make with a CNC router machine. Design the whole thing on the computer and let the program do it's thing. You could create some pretty spectacular designs and shapes.
nice job bro i wish i knew about these long before
Another good vid.
LED Lights are awesome! :)
Awesome!
i think that looks incredible
Your awesome dude
Thats beautiful man
Thank you. I'm very happy with how it turned out.
I know its a 4 year old video but i really like this install. I don't know if anyone has said this but you can increase how much light is diffused into your piece by sanding the edges of the acrylic so the light gets scattered in more directions with up to 600 grit sand paper. You can also do custom logos with custom vinyl sticker and a sand blaster. Blasting it several times will deepen the etch and it will light up better.
I love leds it makes the install better
Thanks for watching!
beautiful. I like
thank you so much
Love led accent lighting.
I have these lights in my basement. So cool!
Love it
Install looking great! I have used a very similar LED product and had lights fail over time and the adhesive let go. My install didn't allow for taping as you did to provide extra secure connections. I would say, just figure on the adhesive failing and design accordingly. The failuire of actual lights surprised me more. LEDs are supposed to be 20,000 hr lights, but not all LEDs are equal I guess. Thanks for your shows!
Wow, you are so cool!
excelente tips
Lol Im watching this video for the first time in 2024 and driving the Pontiac Grand Prix while listening to skrillex gave me a chuckle. I used to own a Grand Prix and bumped Skrillex as well. Still do occasionally cuz dubstep really tests out my system and sounds great on it.
Impressive work !!! I didn't that look with lights on.
very cool
