vanko25 70 Report post Posted January 17, 2017 Hi all, Since I got the car I was a bit annoyed that they put a bulb only in 1 corner of the boot and the light is not as bright as I want it. Few months ago I changed the nt bulb with LED but was not still happy. Yesterday when I was being lazy at work an idea came up. I had a 2 inch self-adhesive LED strip laying around in the draw so decided it will suit perfectly. In order to connect it to the original bulb socket I used a LEDs bulb, I removed the LED board part from the plastic plug, inserted the wires that I covered with solder and bent them after that. That plug then went straight to the socket on the car. Lastly I adhered the LED strip in the middle of the boot so get good lighting everywhere. And the final result: Link for the LED strip. http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/warm-white-12v-ip65-5cm-led-strip-n91na Link for the LED bulb: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201479017548?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT 1 Keethos reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vanko25 70 Report post Posted January 17, 2017 Way better than standard. Need to get a 5m stip to get more light in the boot and fit footwell lights too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rich 378 Report post Posted January 17, 2017 I bought a set of ten modules in a strip, I have 6 in the boot leaving two for each footwell. Not got round to fitting the footwell lights yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
