I for one would be grateful to see a how to guide as it's something I'd like to do and I don't have a clue with electrics.
You're right mate every penny does count especially at the petrol station when it's just clicked over a tenner :whistle:.

you don't need to cut the panels if you use an led strip. I have 2 sets, one set comes on instead of the dome light, while the other is dimmable and connected to the ash tray light.

I had thought about doing that but was aiming to have a more factory fitted look which I think I've done not too bad at when they are off they look like meant to be there

looks good, certainly beats the daft price of the other aftermarket lights you can buy for a kings ransom (if you have seen them) :thumbsup:

You know why that is its because the zeds glove box is so small you couldn't loose anything in it in the first place to need a light to find it =))=))
