Need advice

Monroe06 · 03-30-2008, 11:42 PM

I spent 2 days trying to put lights inside and under my magnum and wasn't able to figure out where to put them. There is nowhere under the front or back bumper to tie them up too. Has anyone had this issue and if so how did you do it.

what kind of lights?

If you are talking about like neons or LED's I have the back zip tied to the little "lip" on the bottom of the rear bumper. I drilled 3 holes in the bottom lip with a dremel and then just fed zip ties through the holes and around the lights. For the front I took off the plastic shield thing and dremeled a notch out for the LED to shine through. I mounted the light on the inside of the pan with the little bracket things that come with the lights. Hope this helps, I can throw some pics up later today if you want (girlfriend took the camera).

Some pics would be awesome. We were able to do the sides but anywhere we looked to do the front and back there was just nothing.
My other question is did you drill into your floor board to get the wires inside? My friend kinda rigged it and there are wires showing on the outside. They work for now since there is a race/show this weekend, but I really want it fixed before the next one

Run all the wires up to the front of the car, and into the engine compartment. You can access the interior through the firewall on the drivers side. Pop the cover that is in the wiper cowl. You will see a black boot, This will give you access to the interior. You can also use the hole that the hood release cable goes through.

^^ That is exactly what I did with all my wires. The back tube wires I brought it over the rear axle where it wont hit anything then brought it along one of the side tubes and up through the engine bay to that pass through. Put the tube in the back with the wire comming out toward the drivers side then snake it up front along that side. I will take pics for you once my girlfriend gets out of school and bring the camera back.
