Was thinking about getting them wired up to interior light so when the doors open etc i think i would find them on when driving distracting

i had mine wired to the light on the cigarette lighter
Except i had a Cold Cathod kit as ebuyer sold them for silly money
There were anal bright, they were a cold blue glow, it wasn't visible in the day, but night i liked them

Cold cathods tho break easily tho, my huge giant feet caught them a few times :(

Hell Ebuyer still sell them cheap!

foot well lights usually, in every car i've had with them (factory fitted) come on with the opening of the doors.

our mini has lights everywhere foot well lights puddle lights etc as well as the usual mini interior light pack which puts little coloured LEDs in virtually every panel and pocket they could find, this can be distracting when driving where there are no street lights or anything to take the glare out so they can be adjusted in brightness up and down with a switch on the roof panel.

essentially what i'm saying is too much light distracting and can cause glare so having them door switched.

if i were you i would make the wheels the priority as there is nothing worse than a modified car with horrible £13 wheel trims
 
nice car!i have the same....I also like the 5th door sticker!!!were can i find a stickes like this?
 
I did mine from the interior light and I think it looks brilliant
