would 1 LED be sufficient to light up at night?
would I need more than 2?
opinions please!!
Well I'm not familiar with interior lighting with leds but
I'm having Courtesy Illumination installed in my new 06 CIVIC when it arrives
there are 3 leds total, no led bars, and led bars are too bright from what I've seen.

There will be one led for each area of lighting, one on the drivers area, one around the center console area and one on the passenger area (foot wells for both sides) so 2 would probably be good if you just want to do the foot wells, if you want to do the back, just add 2 more

Remember, I'm a rookie, noob, etc LOL
