  • Ambient lighting finished

    This is my first proper oost other than aski g for help.

    Finished my ambient lighting mod. Ive also created a new ambient downlight that lights the cup holder are of the centreconsole. It looks superb in the dark. Lights can be controlled by bluetooth too. Also replaced inside bulbs with white led lights.

        Cheers thats what i was going for. Managed to screw up the dash panels in the process. Broke a tab and decided to use super glue. Didnt realise but the vapour from the glue attacked the whole of the wood effect. Will never use that again.

            Yeah.
            Got them from ebay. The good thing about them is that they talk to each other by bluetooth. You put a master box in with a live feed. I piggy backed mine off the ciggy lighter fuse. Then all the other boxes just have a power source. The ones on the dash left hand side i connected to that same circuit. The one going up the drivers side of the dash i connected to back of cig sockect. The ones in the door i just pulled power from the existing ambient circuit. If youve got the pocket downlighters then use that. The one in the roof i took the hands free kit mic housing. Drilled a small hole from good side and stuck led housing pointing down and connected to the back of the courtesy light. The black wire is ground and the yellow is ambient light. Also had to drill 3 holes. One from the inside of each of the entry ponts where the fiber comes in and 2 under glove box.

            I also used some black heat shrink to cover bits of light i didnt want seen and some 3m sticky pads tl mount controller boxes.

            I was thinking 50 quid was a bit steep for the lights but they work so well and you can change to any colour. Although blue/purple goes well with the red buttons.
            Ill get some proper night shots

                  Mr XophericX sir you should be proud of what you have a achieved
                  what I love is the idividualisum you have had an idear and done it and the end result is there in all its glory .
                  i think the money side pales into suffnificants when it looks as good as that .
