Default new boot lighting ;)

done this afternoon, ready or NBO.

dead easy too fit, used three o the 5050smd strip lighs, double sided tape stuck them to the plastic trim of the roof/boot area, took a power feed from the boot light. so easy to do.

what you think?






I picked green as it gives a good bright light, i also had a green side light bulb i could then fit in the original boot light, that just finished it off.


It also shows you what can be done with the 5050smd strips

I want to do it to my classic, but so I can see whats in the boot a little better. If yours was under the parcel shelf, I think it would serve a better purpose.
How much did the strip cost, and where from?

3rd pic looks good like you have had a custom retrim, But... I just cant think how these lights are useful in any way other than saying look at me, unless you are a doctor then the green light would be good for when you leave it on double yellows

But thats just my opinion if you like them then thats all that counts so fair play to you mate.
