Re: Illuminations!

It looks very good.Only the day lights, i think they would look better if you had put them right over the fog lights and not so much close to the center( if i make any sence)!

Re: Illuminations!

Looks good (the interior) but dont like the day running lights. I agree with vagosofron, and they look like christmas lights lol.

Re: Illuminations!

Running lights are ok on stuff when they are standard but when added to a car that isnt meant to have them they look 100% chav

Re: Illuminations!

if you look in the guide section i used everything there, i bought the LED's from http://www.ultraleds.co.uk cost me £9.99 delivered i think plus £1.69 for some regular house 240v 2 core wire and 50p for a terminal block took me around an hour to do the footwell lights

Re: Illuminations!

Really like the footwell lighting, but was a bit sceptical about the running lights until you put up those dusk pictures, and they actually look very nice

Re: Illuminations!

Yup those new pics do it justice. Wasn't too sure about them before but looks good with the black vinyl-ed grille.
