Sorry for the wait guys! but its taken me some time to get there with my camera at night. and i just put in the rear ones. so here it is!
Materials:
I bought 2 sets of blue LED bars at wallmart in the auto section. 20$ each
i also purchased 2x 3 socket 12v adapters that has a USB port on the side
one of them was metal plated withmatching blue LEDs i had bought after id already bought the one.
the normal adapter was 12.99 and the blue one from wall mart was 15$
electrical tape
velcro
3M tape (PROVIDED)

i first used 3x 1'' strips of velcro to secure the 12v adapters to the sides of the console. then used electrical tape to hold the wiring together and to hide it.

then using the provided 3M tape i secured the first set to under the console and put the button in the adapter.
i held the wires tight across the console from left to right i had a friend hold it down flush while i secured it to the other side with a piece of electrical tape

these are the 12v adapter and the deodorizer on...
and heres it with the front lights on...

then very carefully i threaded the wires along the console underneath the plastic and then using the 3m tape attached it
Back lights on!

So tell me: what do you think!?

You can delete your other thread on this.

Looks bright and distracting. I don't think I'd call that "accent" lighting unless you were trying to accent the whole inside of your truck blue. Also check your local laws on the blue lights. You maybe asking for a hefty ticket if you drive with them on.

well they're really not that blue its just the way i took it to make it seem like that.
and yesss i was trying to accent the whole thing blue! thank you for the the tip and warning
but they're not distracting at all! i also turn them off while im driving and the controls are right next to my hand.

Not trying to be a Richard but it screams a little 2fast 2 furious for my liking but to each his own.

Only issue I would have is that the KK only has one adaptor. I wouldn't want to take it for lights when I have other things to plug in.
