'Belle' - Matt's SP20
This evening marks the end of my interior lighting install, and thus it is time to start logging my work. Pretty much every saturday during the day is car mod / maintenance time for me.. So I'll be aiming to update my worklog once a week.

Just an idea... Personally hate footwell lighting being wired to a separate switch, and always on.
Best idea would have been to wire them up to the power supply for the interior / dome light. That would actually make them legal. As they would only turn on when you open your doors. And if you want them on to find something you dropped... Just turn the dome light on and it will all light up Much neater install. Anyway... Anyway as above... Hope to see you at some of the upcoming agt events. Even come out to Penrith in a couple of weekends time for a cruise and a dinner (welcome just to come for the cruise). Then like all the other guys.. I can also convince you to spend all of your money with some of my awesome ideas Oh... But those rims ^^^^ they are nice

Just use some speaker wire from the dome through the roof lining, down the A pillar into footwell. Then parallel the lights off that. You can do it dodgy and wrap the wires around the contacts where the light goes. Or can solder them into the wires that plug into the dome

Going to need long wheel nuts .. stock nuts would technically fit, if you had an impossibly thin tire iron.

What I got up to today ..
New (to me) toys from Matt... Spent a bit of time cleaning them up. Swapped one wheel over to take a photo. I reckon she's going to look great Got a photo of the footwell LEDs. I reckon they're a bit bright.. Probably solving this with a PWM board from jaycar.
