I'm kinda interested in the mud flaps. You have a link? Why Ikea? Does Walbogs not have crappy enough cutting boards?

And to get diodes to work, you just need the right step down resistors. Often the trick is to use a pot that is close and play with it until you find what you like. And you only need condoms to defuse the light, not to control brightness if you find the right resistance.

Your real question is if you want them to dim with the dash lighting or if you want them full bright whenever? That determines the circuit you use.
