Aveo Interior LED Light Upgrade
by Subachad on May.08, 2011, under Automotive, Electrical, Installs, Interior
I have had LED Footwell lights in the Aveo for a while, but they were a little too green and the light was a little too focused. I prefer more of a glow and while I wasn’t able to find teal, I could find some lights that are capable of teal. As an added benefit, they are also able to pulse to the beat.
The install was pretty straight forward, I simply unplugged the power for the old lights and hooked up the new using the same relay. Since they are attached to the controller, it’s a little more difficult to run the wires.
Without further ado, here are a couple videos followed by some images.
Getting Started
Removing the Stereo
Stereo Removed
Sliding the light below the seat rail
LED mounted under seat with zip ties
Ground point just behind the stereo
LED mounted below the dash on the passenger side
Controller box and wires tucked into a lower cubby hole
Controller box, sticky taped to the cubby allowing easy access to the controls
All in!
Garage light off to better show the glow of the LED’s
LED’s are a full RGB spectrum allowing other colors such as red, blue, green, etc..
Rear seating foot area
Great view showing the Skittle approved teal

Unique Motorsports and then some.
Welcome to Unique Motorsports. This site was originally intended to share my automotive experiences. It has since grown to show random life events, tech stuff I deal with on a daily basis, random ramblings and showcase some of the tuning part installs I do in Las Vegas. While I mostly do Subarus as a recommended Mechanic for Flat4. I do other cars as well. If you are looking to have some lowering springs, shocks, struts, exhaust, bushings, FMIC, chassis braces, or anything else installed on your import or domestic in Las Vegas, send me an email and maybe we can set something up.
