Thank you very much. I try to explain it. My English is not very good. I apologize if I make a mistake. :(

I used osram power LED. It's 1.2 W.

I passed the cable through the mirror.

I sent the cable into the door.

I opened the Door upholstery and put the cable inside the bellows.

I connected the wires to the ceiling lighting socket.

I drilled a hole in the bottom of the side mirror and put the led.

Wow! Seems super easy! And your English is fantastic so don't apologise! [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Can you tell me where that roof light connector is that you added the wires into to power those lights?

Thanks

The black cable marked red is negative. There is a gray socket on the right. 12 V cable of the roof lamp, the gray cable on the left side of the top of the gray socket.

I did not get them from the internet. I saw and bought a store selling LED materials. :( If you searched for "1.2W OSRAM Module led" in google, you can find the information.

Where are those LED lights from on your back bumper, and where did you wire them to.

I cut the lamps with Dremel.

Then I put two rows of led strips.

I combined the pieces with silicon.

This is backlight socket. I tried to explain the cable colors.

[Image: ad0R0d.jpg]

I connected a led to the brake lamp. The other led is on the signal wire.

Thank you very much. I made the exhausts from aluminum metal. I used aluminum with a thickness of 4 mm. Then I put them in the bumper. Smile

RE: Hello from İstanbul :) - sheppy1 - 16:th-Dec-2016

That's a creating way of doing it and the effect looks great! Well done mate! Love all your mods! You got any more planned?! Still not need able to source those mirror lights you have
