I'll take some daytime shots today. I used the thin size 3M double sided tape on some places. I actually replaced it last night from the 9ft to the 16ft to be able to fully wrap around the center armrest console. I will also install the 9ft tonight. The installation is kinda fun.

Here's the listing for the 16ft:

I love the look! How do you power multiple strings of lights? Do they plug into each other?

That's only one long string but I will add the shorter one probably tonight after work. I bought a splitter connector but it was the wrong one. I will just connect them together with a switch and then to the truck fuse. It comes with a USB connector but I rather connect it to the fuse so it will automatically turn on and off. Adding a switch just in case I want to turn it off while the truck is on.

It looks great! Any pointers on the install? When do you use the thin 3m tape? My Longhorn came with accent lighting as I am sure your Limited did too but this is outstanding! I must do this to my truck after seeing yours

Use the tape where there's no place for the light trim edging to hold like under the glove cover and the back of the center consule. Use the thin 3M tape which can be purchased on AMazon or auto stores; you will have to cut if you use the standard size tape. Trim the light edging for 90 degree curves. It's all logical and just play around with it.

The OEM accent lighting on my Limited is pathetic. I like the lighting in my 2019 BMW X5 a lot and this lighting mod resembles it.

Just ordered some door edge protectors which I have on my wife car since we bought it and they are awesome.

I also ordered the screem protector for the 12 inch, never know you need it until you need it.
