Adds a real nice ambient light, very nice improvement. I found it kind of dim last year with just the OE 2 lights

    Wow! That looks awesome!....Maybe check-out the sale of LED strip lighting etc. at West Marine, that's on right now. Apparently there is still a store left in Ont. in Oakville 9095-339-1755?

    Funny how the LED shadows when it's not completely dark in the pic.

    Great work guys. Real custom looks!

    BTW that is three pictures of different Rinkers and they all look cool. The whole model line, across the years, looks so great!

    Looks great. Are these the same size cup holders? Where did you get them from and how much per? I have been tinkering with the led strip lighting and plan on trying to fab my own it the existing holders.

    These are the multicolor 10mm 5050 led strip lighting. They are not as overwhelming as the picture shows. It adds a nice touch and is a great addition of usable light when you select the white color.

    It does look pretty cool.  I wonder why so many go with a blue or green light?  Red lights, if they are fairly dim, do not mess up night vision.  I am planning on replacing my cockpit and cabin lighting to LED, (if I ever get port engine fixed), when I do they will all be red.  Added bonus, I don't think red attracts bugs like the other colors!

    I tried to make my own led cup holders and they turned out pretty good. Cabin led lights too! I have less than $75 invested with all lights Installed.
