Tips on getting that underglow Underbody Installation Guide Adding underbody LED strips to your vehicle is a fantastic way to enhance its appearance and make a bold statement. Follow this professional guide to ensure a smooth installation and successful programming with a Bluetooth controller. Step 1: Plan Your Installation

Choose the Placement:

  • Decide where the LED strips will be mounted under your vehicle. Typically, there are four strips: two for the sides, one for the front, and one for the rear.
  • Ensure the placement avoids moving parts, exhaust pipes, and areas prone to excessive heat or debris.

Test the Kit:

  • Before installation, connect the LED strips to the bluetooth controller and power source to ensure they function correctly. You can do this by connecting each strip directly to the controller on the DI side of the strip. Then, connect the black wire from the controller and connect to the ground on a 12v power source. Next, connect the red wire from the controller and connect to the positive on the 12v power source. Once connected, open your app needed for your lights. (If Flow Series- use MagicLED, and if RGBW/RGB- use MagicLight BLE). to make sure all lights power on.
Step 2: Mount the LED Strips

Clean the Surface:

  • Thoroughly clean the mounting areas with alcohol wipes to remove dirt and grease for better adhesion.

Attach the Strips:

  • Use the provided adhesive backing or mounting brackets to secure the LED strips. For additional security, reinforce the installation with zip ties - these go a long way!
  • Make sure to avoid all jack points or areas that can be affected when the vehicle is getting serviced
  • For additional security, consider drilling small holes and using screws with brackets.

Route the Wires:

  • Run the wires along the undercarriage of your vehicle, keeping them away from moving parts and heat sources.
  • Secure the wires with zip ties to prevent sagging or damage. Set them no more than 12”-24” apart to give the best hold.
Step 3: Connect to the Power Source

Locate the Power Source:

  • Most kits connect to the car’s battery or fuse box. Refer to your vehicle’s manual to find the appropriate power source.
  • Our controllers are waterproof and can withstand the elements without issue, but due to the extensive heat created by some engines we do recommend placing it outside of the direct heat and more towards the front bumper. Each vehicle is different, but we typically mount behind the front bumper where there is extra airflow to avoid possible overheating.

Connect the Controller:

  • Attach the positive (red) and negative (black) wires from the Bluetooth controller to the corresponding terminals on your power source.
  • If connecting to the fuse box, use a fuse tap to ensure proper integration.

Secure Connections:

  • Use electrical tape or heat shrink tubing to cover exposed connections and prevent short circuits.
  • Make sure the power and ground can reach the point of power being used, each vehicle is different so some extending of the power and ground may be needed.

Note: When running the extensions we recommend running behind body panels or along existing wiring to prevent any excessive damage from road debris or the weather.

Step 4: Program the Bluetooth Controller

Download the App:

  • Install the recommended app for your Bluetooth controller from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

Pair the Device:

  • Turn on your car’s ignition and ensure the Bluetooth controller is powered.
  • Open the app and follow the pairing instructions to connect to the controller.

Customize the Settings:

  • Use the app to adjust colors, brightness, patterns, and synchronization with music or other effects.
Step 5: Test the Installation

Inspect Your Work:

  • Double-check all connections, mounting points, and wiring for security and safety.

Activate the Lights:

  • Use the app to turn on the LED strips and test the various features.
  • Ensure all strips respond correctly and the bluetooth connection is stable.
