I got tired of the crummy lighting in the frunk. So, I got an LED lighting kit and mounted it to the frunk lid liner. It’s wired into the lighting circuit so that it comes on automatically and I installed a cutoff switch. ??

It might be cheaper to drive your frunk out here. ??

Well done! Yours must draw a lot less current than mine; when I connected mine to the light circuit it was not a good thing. That’s why I ended up pulling directly from the 12V battery (through a fuse and a couple cutoff switches)…

Yeah, I measured the two fixtures in series and they used <240mA. I figured that wouldn’t trip the circuit. I was thinking I might need to toss a power control circuit in there to control the lighting until I measured the two fixtures. I just wish I could hide the little pigtail that is along the driver’s side hood hinge better. ?‍♂?

You can definitely do better than that. I’ll send you photos of mine…

The wires go in between the two layers of the hood through the hole at the top of the photo. After that it’s completely hidden.
