Today if got around to fitting my white LED puddle lights and red door lights.

Both are the same just white for puddle lights and red for edge of doors.

From "the bay" about £4 -£5 for 2 white 2 red inc P&P.

They are both attached with the 3M tape already fitted, power is taken from red door marker light, just cut the wires and soldered them back together and covered with heat-shrink.

Sorry 'bout iphone pics!
Here's an idea of where i placed the strips.

There's room so that they dont touch anything when you close the door!

Was thinking of doing the same to the rear doors but was unsure if by wiring them the the front doors with the rest of the LED's would i be putting too much through the orig door wires? (one for Rabs me thinks :thumbup1Smile

Comments welcome. (be kind lol)

Marsdendean Have you not thought about doing what ormi has done - add a number plate light to under the car?!

Not seen what he's done? I'll have to do a search and see if i can find any pic's.
