Now when you ran the wiring could you leave it connected to the plug in for the cigarette lighter? Bought this kit and all info helps on what I should do for wiring
You can. What I did was just cut the end off of the cigarette lighter plug. And ran the positive to an inline fuse to a switch, then to the battery. Negative straight to ground. It's DC light box, not AC, so you can go straight to your batter with no need for an inverter
@@LowLifeMods that would make sense I just want it to turn off and on with the car so leave it like that pretty much was the front piece hard to take off the overhead light etc mines a sedan so I’d hope be easy to get out
@@lanehurt5812 oh okay, so in your case you will want to probably get a fuse tap and tap one of your powered fuses that activates when you turn the key. Like the fuse for your radio (center stack). I didn't have to remove my overhead light. Stayed attached to the ceiling. The only thing that came off was the handles, hanger hooks, front pillars, and rear brake light. And just loosing up the back side panels.
@@lanehurt5812 most kits allow you to use Bluetooth app to power it off plus the controller that comes with it
Me aasfkk rn
I thought me installing my air bags was something I fooled myself. This has to be the most patient install and kudos to you brother for tackling it ….. sheeeesh. 🔥🔥 I may want to do now looking at the after.
Thanks man, appreciate that. 🙏. I'm just glad it's over. I don't see how people do these for a living. 🥵
The meteor feature is expensive but idc that shit looks so cool, imma get it
That snap transition was so clean. I wanted to put lights in mine. Thanks for the tutorial my guy!! Great content!!! 💯
That I know took alot of work & time , but it looks really great I think I was just watching my normal stuff that I watch and then this video came up. I like your video so now I am a new subscriber. Keep up the great work and God Bless you and your family. That's a slick ass car .🔥💯💪🏼👍👍🙏🙏✌😊✌
That's awesome! Thank you for dropping in and subbing! 🙏🙏. I truly appreciate it.
You really wasn’t scared to put a lot of stars that looks insane 😍
You done a great job for this to be your first time doing this 👏 👍 🙌 👌 💪
I always wondered how those were done! I’m going to attempt this install on my 300! Thanks bro
Looks good. I do a few of these a week. You can either remove and re glue the blue foam blocks or poke right through them so you have no dead spots 😉
Thanks. 🙏. Thought about it, but just more work than I wanted to do. 😂. I removed the bigger rear ones, but was fine with the spacing in the end. I went right up on the edge of most of them. Props to you man, I have mad respect for people who do those on the regular
Hey, I tried this, but ended up not having enough fibre optic length to hide the light engine if that makes sense, could you suggest and tips or help? 🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@kealadavey8671 I did mine twice first time was a 9ft one so I hid light engine in back window behind head rest. Second time 13ft worked perfect now its in the trunk.
How much does something like this cost in your city?
What’s the best way to wire them bro?
Hell of a job! Looks great! Ill drop off my car to you 🤣
Never again man! 😂
Thanks for the video. My set just came with only Chinese instructions. Took me a minute to figure out how meteors are suppose to install. It's gonna be ALOT of work but definitely doable in my camaro.
Nice man! Yeah, it's one of my favorite Mods now that it's done. 😂. I ended upr running my power wires to a small switch in my center consol so I can toggle them on and off whenever
@@LowLifeMods yup after watching that's same place I'm gonna run it to. I don't think I'm getting headliner out of car tho so I'll remove seats, drop ceiling and do it inside the car. Kind of sucks but it is what it is.
@@NEMPLS really!? It's going to suck to have to do all that work in that confined space. Check online to see if people with your car are able to pull it out. Some of them, like mine, challengers, have some flex in them to bend them to get them out, but go back to their shape
@@LowLifeMods I've only found one video where they took it out but didn't really show how. I know he had a sunroof. Not sure if it makes it more flexible. Waiting on his reply. I'm not starting it tell next week regardless. Your shit looks good tho. You did a really good job explaining compared to alot of other videos I've seen.
@@NEMPLS thanks man 🙏. I try. Good luck on your project 😁. It will be worth it in the end
Damm that was a very technical install , came out dope tho
👌. Thanks, very time consuming for sure
Haha I’m glad I have old regular cab truck the headliner is like 1/4 the size of yours 😆
😂. Lucky!!!
That is so fire!
I’m going to attempt to install in my 2011 Camry LE
Thats so nice
good job man!
Thanks man, appreciate it 🙏
Good video I Missed the part of what tool you used to poke the holes
Nice bro🔥🔥🔥
Hey I was wondering couldn’t you connect the starlight directly to the battery without out using the toggle switch and use the app/remote to turn it off/on instead? Thanks !
Definetly you can. This is what works for me. My car parks for extended amounts of time, so I didn't want the possibility of the box draining my battery if I didn't move the car for a long time
@@LowLifeMods Oh okay that makes sense too. Thanks for the advice!😈💪
@@LowLifeMods Correct me if I’m wrong but you used the larger pieces at the driver/passenger area then used the smaller ones for going towards the back ?
@@cameronhartline3433 no, i show in the video. I broke the stands up by size close to even, and sectioned off the roof in to 1/8ths. So I applied them randomly in each section, but each section got the same number of sized fibers
Do you have a video on how you remove the headliner?
Did you just have the drill bit in your hand and push it through, or what did you use to poke the hole?
I show it in the video
You can use a thumb tack worked best for me perfect snug fit and you won’t damage the headliner
Love it bud!! I'm wanting to do the same to my car... my biggest fear is fucking up the headliner getting it out and then back in the car!! How did you get it out and in without creasing it?
It has a little flexibility to it. As long as you have 1 seat out and lay the other one all the way back it isn't too bad. Even easier if you have a 2nd person to help guide it from the otherside to minimize folding it more than needed
@@LowLifeMods awesome bud, thanks!
It's about to do the same thing to my car I was wondering do they have all of those features in one kiit
I wanna get them they charging me $2,000 for everything tho
Is the wire for cigarette lighter switch long enough to go from the back to the front to plug it in.? I want to do this but don’t know how to wire so I want to just use the cigarette lighter button
how did you order the shooting stars? I know it's 3 in the front and two in the back but out of all the shooting stars, which is being activated first? Going to take on the task of installing them myself
What is the proper way to do the meteor effect I don’t know the pattern/layout Help asap
Good shit bro!
If the led core ever burns out is it replaceable? Doe sit draw alot of current? Can you wire it directly to your parking lights?
I’d wire it to the fuse it’s way better and yes you can replace the main box if it ever goes out the fiber optic disconnects from the led box
yo how is it with dark tints driving at night? Can you see still?
I have 5% all around. When I'm driving with windows up at night, I normally turn down the brightness because of glare. If front windows are down then it's all good
I’ve had so much trouble taking mine out I couldn’t figure out how to do the back panels
Was hoping you’d show it in the video
@@jamessalgado479 to be honest. I didn't find that too hard. That's why I didn't even bother recording it. But I have also removed those panels in the past. If you look up "workplaydrive" he shows it in a video he made a while back. The title was something like "challenger rear interior panel removel"
1. what are the dimensions for the challengers headliner?
2. what was the tool you used to poke the holes/did you glue the lights and if so what type of glue did you use?
3. if I used the Y adapter on a 10A fuse with a 7.5A going out would It burn up the wire? I would assume that the draw from those two utilities would be to much the 18 AWG wire including the small fuses.
2 u can just use a needle the ones that looks like a T or a drill but the drill will make the fabric stick out the headliner
3 u can plug it into a cig lighter if u have one not sure abt the fuse stuff i didnt hook mine up like that but im sure theres hellas yt vids
@@Offical.DoubleAce I did my starlights about a week ago, it came out amazing. Thanks for the tip g
@@Gavin-III7 what did you use for the holes and what size
@@EnderWarriorzBruh I used a drill bit sized 1/32, it’s incredibly small, but I don’t recommend it because it’ll Frey the headliner just by a little bit and if you aren’t careful you can leave little bumps on the headliner from the drill as well. Fibers I went with are .75mm* 1100pcs* 4m*
Is that 720 enough for like a suv|station wagon?
Looks great man how long did it take to do it
wow bro that's bad ass, great video love the process this is going to be my guide when I start doing mine, by the way how you placed them did you make up the pattern yourself as you go or did you mark it?
Made it up as I went. Just broke it up in to sections to make it balanced
Looks awesome!!! What did you cut fibers with so as not to cut into headliner? Thanks for the inspiration!!
flat cutting plier should work
Urs isnt blue tooth no convertor either ?
It is bluetooth. I left links to the kits in the description of this video if you want to check out the specs
That’s hard
amazing results and good work! I'm looking at the 800 piece version, but my girlfriend says it's way too many and I should go for 550 with a similar sized roof. what do you think?
What car do you have I did it on my 350z and the 550 was perfect wasn’t to little or way to much if it’s a sports car I recommend the 550 strand trust me you’ll be more than satisfied
@@Raul-uj5tk BMW F32 coupe, also a sports car. I think I'm gonna go with 550 - 600! Thank you very much :)
Did u have to order anything extra that didn’t come with the kit ..wires etc?
@@missyrae-l3620 sometimes wires aren't included, depends on the kit. I'm in europe and bought the CHINLY one. Bluetooth 16 W, 550 wires x 0.75 mm wide x 4 m long. but haven't installed it yet. this kit includes everything though
@@n55tourist32 Europe wooooowwwww !!!! Nice 👍 thanks !!!
Did you use a ruler or by eye?
Where you live bro. I would love to bring my Camaro to you
How did you take out the headliner??
It's fairly flexible. After unscrewing everything from the ceiling, once it drops down, it's just a matter of manipulating it put one of the doors. I had my passenger side door open, it took some guiding and slight folding, but it came right own. Just don't bend it anymore than you need to.
How did you connect to 12v DC?
Check my response to the pinned comment
Did u count all the dots u made
Definetly not. But every fiber had a home. I show in the video my process
19:53 that's what she said
Can you do mine 😆
Shoot...I didn't even want to do mine. 😂
Dam 😆
@@LowLifeMods Hey I'm doing mine at the moment, almost done just 500 with meteors only 96 strands on those ,how far apart did you do meteor part ,I'm doing that last I think my meter layout maybe to close like 3/16 inch. I guess I should layout on cardboard and experiment widths unless you could tell me .
It's not being cheap when you know you'll end up doing a better job. Shit man i can't even get old. I'm 52 tired of laying down under shit. But I have to. Sent my van for brakes last month figuring, fuck it ill pay 300 for the rear drums. I didn't want to do them. They smoked last week. Shop's "new guy" didn't know there's a front and rear shoe and put 2 fronts on one side and 2 rears on the other. Got my money back and did it myself. That's not cheap. It's frustration of trying to find capable humans.
I just got an estimate for 2000 bucks for a 1000 star install . Is that good price.? Anyone know ?
2000$ hell no
you sound so tired the entire project yo
I was tired. And exhausted from that tedious work. 😂. You do it, while recording a TH-cam video, and let's see how perky you are. But happy in the end
@@LowLifeModsbro that hard work paid off and that looks amazing
Whats the app name
Talk too much
