I am using a group of LED lights to light the interior of the car ...the all came with pig tails.
Can I wire them in series ?
Thanks
Ian.

Thanks all.
Trailbeast, I intend to go the same way but i have to get the car on the road first.
For the headlights, I am going old school with a set of Bosch lights that run h4s...and getting the headlight kit being sold on FABO.
Last time I checked an LED drops about .7 volts per device if it had no current limiting resistor built in.
The short answer to your question is yes. However if you do that and one of the devices fails, the entire string quits. wire them in parallel and there will be no such concern.

At first I was going to use the two inner tail light section from a 2013 Mustang for my four lights, but HOLY CRAP they are pricey.
I would need four of them, and the average cost even used was hundreds each.
I used a modified bayonet bulb with magnifiers on the inside of the lense surfaces to spread the beam of the 9 LED bulb.
I would like something with more definition to the LED's like the Mustang lights but I'm not spending 800 bucks to do it.
That's why I had that calculator, to build my own.
LED's are cheap as hell, it's apparently the assy labor that gets ya and I can do that part myself.
