i played around with a waterproof led bar to make exterior unique. what do you think? i could call it 'the fiery heart'. i'd like to install a switch for it if reaction is favorable. do i have to use a fuse when adding a switch? i plan to connect the led bar directly to a battery.

I was going to do this, but limit the light to only be for the logo.

Never hurts to put a small fuse.

I have this installed about five years now 😊. White color switching on with headlights. Was thinking about red color but it's lets say on the edge (in terms of road legality) here.

isn't wiring a little tricky to do that? i don't know how to. i'm thinking about making the light on and off slowly like heart beating. it's much easier.

yeah, that's the reason i plan to install a separate switch. i don't think mine is illegal because it has nothing whatsoever to do with headlights, but there might be a slight chance to get interrupted by a cop. can i see yours?
