Footwell Lights for Canadian Model - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

hiei5 · 06-13-2011, 01:47 AM

I didn't find anything on the search, so I made a new post for this. I was wondering if there's any kits out there for the Canadian model of the car that is similar to the stock footwell lights (I guess brighter, but fitted similarly)? I've read through some of the stuff about the upgraded LED lights, but it's only for the GT / Sport model and I have no idea what the Canadian model is suppose to be. In the past, I've bought LED strips and just glue/tape them to the footwell area, but it doesn't seem like I have a lot of places to hide the LED strips without having really nonuniform lighting. If you guys can give me any advice, it'll be really appreciated.

*Btw, just got the car not too long ago, totally loving it. I've noticed that when I'm driving above 60 km/hr, I start hearing a wind blowing sound behind me. Also, when I brake, I sometimes hear a high pitch whistling sound. Is this normal? I have the full exterior package.

this works on canadian CRZs as well:

DIY: Brighter Floor Lights (for GT)

The Canadian version doesn't have floor lights though and it isn't an extra option either, or at least the ones around here (BC) didn't.

mine as well. canadian models come with the floor lighting, you probably just can't see them because you're dash brightness is set too low.

... Seriously? I'm going to check after work today, but I've honestly never seen any light coming from the footwell area all this time... Update you guys on this later, thanks for the replies.

Did you check that other forum out thoroughly? about where to find it, you wont see it as it has a black and gray filter on it, you need to drill the hole through the filter for the light to shine through, takes about 10 minutes in total time, 2% in your energy and your good. You wont find it unless you take it apart though as you will just overlook it.
