    I have been doing a few night cruises and shows so I thought a bit of light might be different.

    I installed under bonnet LED plug in lights on magnets and fitted some LED lights in the back

    So along with the Holden wanky thing that projects the Holden logo I secretly wired the bonnet with 12v and put some concealed plugs in the holes in the front bonnet corners. I then found some old speakers and scavenged the
    magnets.

    I got some 12v LED spotlights and mounted them to the magnets and put wiring plugs on the end. I used the plugs so I can unplug them when I want to leave. I also put that clear paint protector vinyl under the magnets so they don't scratch the paint...I have a problem!
