Underglow Strip Light Kit Installation Guide

Ultimate Underglow Strip Light Kit Installation Guide

Now that you've got the perfect sizes, let's get those lights installed. Your ride is about to get a serious glow-up.

What’s in the Box:

• (2) Front LED strips
• (2) Side LED strips
• (2) Rear LED strips
• Wiring harness
• Magic Controller box (it’s magic because it works like a charm)
• Zip ties and wire mounts

Tools You’ll Need:

• Heat gun or hair dryer (yes, your hair tools can be multi-purpose)
• Cleaning supplies (degreaser, alcohol, and a dry cloth)

Step 1: Preparation and Testing

1. Unpack and Layout: Lay out the LED strips like they’ll adhere to your ride—front, sides, and rear. Each reel should be labeled by size and location.

Step 2: Setting Up the Magic Controller Box

1. Loosen the Clamps: Use the included flathead screwdriver to loosen the metal clamps on the Magic Controller.
2. Wire Connections: Match the LED wires to the Magic Controller—no rocket science here, just color coordination. Except for the Yellow wire - that goes in the green area.

3. Wiring Harness: Connect the Magic Controller to the wiring harness, then hook up the harness to your battery to test the lights.

Pro Tip: Make sure those arrows on the LED strips point toward the back. Facing the wrong way? Your lights might just stage a rebellion.

Step 3: Setting Up the App

1. Download the App: Head to the app store and grab MagicLED for either Apple or Android.
2. Bluetooth Connection: Turn on Bluetooth and connect to “SP105E.” If you can pair with your earbuds, you’ve got this.
3. App Settings: Set the "Pixels" to "110" and choose "GRB WS2811" from the dropdown. Now, adjust the colors, modes, speed, and brightness until you’re satisfied.

Step 4: Cleaning and Installation

1. Cleaning: Wipe off any grime with degreaser, follow up with alcohol, and make sure everything is completely dry. If you skip this, the adhesive might ghost your ride.
2. Attach the Strips: Start with the front two strips. Peel off the adhesive backing and press the strips down, following the curves. Repeat for the sides and rear. Custom bumper? Adjust and go.

Step 5: Running Wires and Final Steps

1. Route the Wires: Run the wires from the engine bay to the strips, securing them with zip ties and mounts. Keep them far from hot parts—unless you're in the mood for a melted light show.
2. Heat Cure: Use a heat gun or hair dryer to set the 3M adhesive. Hold the gun 4-5 inches away from the strips. Don’t fry the adhesive; you're curing it, not cooking it.

Congrats—you've just turned your ride into a rolling light show. Pat yourself on the back.
