Golf cart undercarriage lighting
 
I just finished installing a 4 tube LED undercarriage lighting system on a 2023(?) Yamaha golf cart. This was a multi-hour project due to the newer carts having the undercarriage plastic panels. While earlier versions of these golf cart had convenient places to install the LEDs, the newer versions do not in my humble opinion. If the LEDs are installed on the plastic panels these will interfere with future maintenance. I ended up drilling holes in the floor webbing and hanging the LED tubes from tywraps. This worked reasonably well for the tubers along the sides, the front and back were another story as it is necessary to avoid the suspension parts.

So, my advice, look under your cart before ordering the parts, and if you still decide to do this expect a significant charge for the installation.

Love it! Any chance you could post a pic, at night maybe, of finished product?

This was done for a neighbor, many of the online site have videos of their products, this one probably had several dozen lighting effects. Also, I was done before the sun went down, so no pictures.

And don't do blue undercarriage lights: that's for law enforcement only.
