^^ sort of right, while the puddle lights aren't on the LCM either, they do need to have the same drain as a normal bulb.... for some reason they need this for the timer circuit to function.... but I reckon that Craig's solution of wiring them direct to an interior light is the best way around that |

getting leds to work in the mirror puddle lights is easily done by wiring one of the normal bulbs in parallel with one of the leds... ... - .- -.

Or you could just wire it to the lamp in the bottom of the door and save yourself the reliability issues that standard bulbs present |

I went for all blue interior led's (except the map lights) as I had them in my old Jaguar - gives a nice "look" no danger of showing up any skin imperfections and gets very positive comments |

Quick mobile phone photo of the Blue LED's - As I mentioned basically changed every light with the exception of the map reading lights as I discovered in my last car its very hard to read under blue light |

Bought them on ebay in January last year from a seller called we-sell-hids as a pack of 18 although he has none listed at the moment. |
