We show you guys how to install a basic LED strip we purchased ay our local automotive goods shop. This is a nice European touch and adds a whole lot of style, for not that much money!

Keep in mind after we installed the strip under the dash originally, it way WAY too bright to be driving at night safely. So we moved the lights to under the bucket seats and then got the results we originally wanted to add in the first place. Interior lighting! It’s awesome stuff!

*Please excuse the editing mistake at the end of the video. The music was supposed to fade out like usual, but obviously it just keeps on going! That’s my fault. Sorry guys.

What kind of electrical receptacle should you install in the kitchen or bath? The answer is a GFCI outlet, or a ground fault circuit interrupt outlet. A GFCI (or GFI) outlet should be installed in any place where electricity might come in contact with water; such as a kitchen, a bathroom, a laundry room, garage, or exterior space. Join the At Home channel’s host, Jeff Wilson, for a tutorial on how to install a GFCI electrical outlet.
