Neon lighting is very often used in modding buildings. Currently, there are many ways to install it in order to make your car more beautiful and extravagant. You can do all this yourself, and your car will have individuality and originality. Let's consider the installation of internal and external lighting on the cabinet door and drive.
Necessary
- Soldering iron
- Electric drill as well as drills: 5 mm and 3 mm)
- Wiring
- LEDs
- 2 resistors (220 and 22 Ohm)
- Ridkontakt
- Super glue
- Duct tape
- File or file
- Magnet
Instructions
Step 1
Install the interior lighting to the drive. Drill a 5mm hole for the diodes. To do this, mark the place where they will be located, the distance between them should be the same. Now proceed directly to drilling the hole. Try on diodes more often, if the holes do not fit, then you can correct them with a file. Fix them in the holes with super glue, soldering together. This is the first electric circle.
Step 2
Next, make holes for 3mm diodes, drill them in the upper corners of the door grooves. If the holes are small, they can be enlarged with a file. If they turn out to be larger than the required size, then this can be corrected with adhesive tape.
Step 3
Now fix the LEDs with super glue and solder them together. The second electric circle turned out. The most important thing in the assembly is correctly, according to the diagram, to connect the LEDs, resistors and a readout contact. Opposite the read contact, install a magnet with glue, which must be fixed on the inside of the door. This is necessary so that when the door is opened, the backlight comes on.
Step 4
Don't forget two rules. First, find an electrical circle that will be closed, and decide which side will be affected by the magnetic contact. Second - pick up a magnet with a weak magnetic field so that there is no harm to the hard drive. Now you can start sealing both electrical circles. If the work is done correctly, you will get a beautiful and high-quality neon backlight. If the door is open, the drive illumination turns on, if the door is closed, then the external illumination on the door turns on. The bottom lighting will always be on.
