I'm not sure EL is really bright enough for this application. I bought a new set of sill plates and I can still barely tell they're illuminated. The LED puddle lights probably don't help.

Going to try and fix my original set with LEDs. 2010 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE

The 5050 led strips I used are really bright - helped with being blue they really stand out. Very good value less than £10 for 4 x 30 cm lengths, only needed 2 to do the job but thought would have some spares! Don’t need transformers just wired into existing loom. 2012 tdv8 Westminster arrived Jan 19 gone Dec 23

If I remember they are polarity sensitive so check they work before doing the final connection in case + / - need swooped over. 2012 tdv8 Westminster arrived Jan 19 gone Dec 23

If you have the illuminated sill covers Just use the existing wires that are on when you open the doors and the interior lights come on. Would be too distracting if wired through ignition 2012 tdv8 Westminster arrived Jan 19 gone Dec 23

Thanks to this thread, I sorted my sills yesterday and they’re now a bright white. It’s little things like this thread which make the forum what is it!
