Interior LED lights/AR210

[Fordman]

I got my OPTI-7 interior lights installed today! They work amazing. Install took approx 6 hours but I was being meticulous. All wires are hidden. You can only slightly see the cockpit left and right led strips in the daylight if you are looking. It's dark now, I'll try and get a video next weekend. They are pretty cool changing colors and goes with the beat of the music. On top of all that they light up the interior so much better than the one POS of a stock cockpit light Yamaha gives you. This is on a 2021 AR210.

I unbolted the seat backrest's and drilled a hole. I wanted the wires hidden and that was the only way to make sure nothing was showing. For power I just used the cigarette lighter adapter they gave you and added a another power point behind the dash so I can plug/unplug it whenever. Just taped into the power point that's already there for power.

I got just the 4 4 inch expansion kit. Used 2 of them in the back between the rear speaker and cupholders and 2 in the front bow on the side.

Thanks i appreciate it.. How did u thread the wires on the front from port to starboard?? Was it difficult???

It was a little difficult but not terrible. I started at the right front and went down the right side then to the back and across the front the engine bay following the existing main wire loom. Then up the left side and same thing, follow the wire looms and use the existing zip tie harness that are there. I just took my time so there was no wires hanging down and all hidden. It took me most of the day but like I said I wanted it all hidden.

Awesome, that's what I'll do. I do appreciate it,
