So i wanna make a vtec light, i assume all i have to do is connect is splice a wire and connect it to a 12v LED. The wire that activates the VTEC solenoid will make the LED light up when it hits vtec. Nehoo, the problem rite now is i dunno which wire to splice, or where the VTEC solenoid is.. Anybody wanna post a picture and point at where the VTEC solenoid/wire is???

I really don't understand what's with ppl and calling certain mods rice, everyone has their own opinion. A vtec light is a cheap mod i can do myself, if u consider it rice go ahead i don't care.. its not like i'm goin overboard and puttin bigass useless aluminum spoilers on my ****.. or buying body kits and not painting them. call it rice if u want, u proably have somethin on ur car other ppl consider rice too =-P
Ok this is wut i figured for a VTEC light.. basically the ECU sends a signal through a wire to activate the VTEC solenoid when VTEC is activated. So basically all u have to do is splice the wire so u can connect a 12V LED to it, and just mount the 12V LED wherever u want, be creative, put it in ur gauge cluster or somethin. The VTEC solenoid is next to the distributor i believe, but i suggest u find the wire that's leading from the ECU, should be green with a yellow stripe.

stickers that add 50 horses ... lol joke man chill out ... thats my opinion and as you can see people style there car the way they want, if they want rice they get rice ... oh well it was a joke ... no hard feelings
HEY i would think a VTEC light would be awsome so u can tell ppl u are not VTEC literate!...It would be liek those big tachometers that have a light on to tell u to shift!!

I had this idea stuck in my head. if you put a large led/vetec light on the dash behind the guage cluster, then it could be reflected upon the front windshield. I think I'll do that with mine soon. Be all like old school lexus. I don't think it's rice. I think it's more functional then non fucntional bmw z fender crap people molded on to their fenders. Even worst, ceiling scoops... they're ****.
here's a good idea.
have flourescent lights mounted under your sides and rear, hook them up to a relay so arming the relay let's your ground effects come on when you have your vtech on.
