Hi guys.

This is my latest project.
A simple, but very useful MOD, when parking in "dark" places with no streetlights (I live such a place).

2 small 1W "Eagle-eye LED spots" has been used for this project.
Cables are connected to the roof-light wires, so they'll fade in/out in the same manner, and are activated from the remote-control to the car.

Hope you like. If any questions just ask...

Very effective well done, and easy to follow pics but I don't think I'll be undertaking that little big job

What control panel is that you have in your dash (2nd to last picture)

Sorry for the delay...Actually I found that many of the eagleeye LEDs looks the same, but claimes to have differerent wattages. The ones I bought said 1W, but frankly speaking I don't know if they are maybe similar to 1.5 and 3W types.
I haven't measured the exact usage yet.

Here you can see the type I got:

Bought 2x3W.I will be using them in the boot, hooked up to the center console light.
Will probably get the car between January 1st and 10th, so I look forward to installing all this stuff.

stratcast: Did that too, but not with this kind of LED, as they are focussing the light too much.Will show pics later...

I've bought some labeled wide angle, but will test them before mounting
