I was lookin today and the only spot to tape it to looked like the socket. I'm hoping I'm just missing something obvious

what ya could do is just remove the metel clip the socket is connected to,plug the ligt into the socket,use some electrical tape to wrap around it keeping it from just popping out of the socket and tuck everything back into the hole in the headliner,then mount the board with mounting tape to the top..???

I got one from Oznium. Does it have double sided tape on it? If so buy some Velcro strips, pull the two pieces apart and use the half of the Velcro(the hard plastic side) and use the tape on the back of it(the velco) and tape it to the double sided tape on the back of the led board, then just put it up on the cloth headliner. works great for mine.



btw mines Cool White, not blue like it looks in the video. crappy camera, IRL its just white

I never thought about using velcro. Good idea.

Yeah, pushed the socket out of the way and stuck it up there, thanks for all the help, I'll try to get a pic up later.
