Hello,
since i have had my Panda i have noticed how poor the interior lights are,
I have addresed this in several of my previous cars so after a few weeks and the kids saying 'i can't get my seatbelt on' in the back and the candles in the front being decorative rather than functional i set about improving things.
i started by ordering some LED festoon replacements from Amazon.
these were an improvement but i thought it could be better.
The main problem is the 'optics' are smoked grey plastic and a 'reflector' which is simply painted silver.
to counter this i connected two of the bulbs together with some earth wire from houshold 'twin and earth' cable..
these were angled to provide the original light direction plus added down facing.
