Footwell lighting for under a tenner

[EdinburghAndy]

Well I decided to bugger my studying this afternoon and do a job I've been planning for AGES... crystal blue footwell lighting which comes on with the side/headlights ;D

Total cost was a little under £10 (for both sides) and they look BETTER than neons (in my opinion). The LEDs are the most expensive part - pays to shop around (eBay!). Still have 4 LEDs left over (used 3 on each side) and plenty of wire so I may put 2 in each of the rear footwells, or one secreted behind each the air vents in the front... ;D

If anyone's interested I can let y'all know the best way to do the front, and what you need, etc as long as you don't mind sacrificing the pointless wee bulb that lights the interior of the ashtray!

I'm planning to post a couple of photos once Fuji repair my d**n digital camera - sent it off today for the THIRD time in a month!! Seems nobody can do their job properly these days... but that's another story!

Fire away - tell us how you did it, then I shall move the thread to How To

Thanks EdinburghAndy.

P.s moved the non-topic related door pins from the instrument lights thread to flashing door pins thread, its not been deleted as you may have thought.

BigOL, I spotted the thread, cheers - probs should have posted there in the first place

nevyn, I'll get some pictures posted as soon as I get my digi camera back - still waiting I swear, if their repair centre was near by I'd go right in and kick their lazy arses.... anyhoo, I digress...

Full instructions and photos when I get me camera ;D
