Brigante Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 focus will be looking Bang Tidy with that recipe and some 5smd 6000k white w5w parking bulbs. Good to know :P Riight my blue LEDs don't actually seem that bright at night compared to other peoples I've seen in the forums Is there some way of adjusting the brightness or should I have got some of these bulbs instead to spread the light more? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/320919890172?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 Or am I just being silly? Heres some night pics of mine: These 2 have the flash turned on on my camera cause without it the photo's just completely black with a random blob of blue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Those ones you've linked to will certainly spread the light better. The ones you have in at the moment are a bit too focused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I was thinking, wish I'd have seen the other ones first before ordering mine now.. !Removed! Is there a way of adjusting the brightness?

Brigante Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 Are there any other types of LEDs I should be looking at that spread the light better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Unfortunately brightness is fixed. Don't go too bright though, you don't want Blackpool illuminations. (or do you?) :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigante Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 Few. Were they on 100% brightness? Or just retaining a little bit of light? Was the inside courtesy light on too mate? Thought so. Just checking in case like when gc88 said here, If they actually weren't 100% or something. Lol nope don't want blackpool, just want em spread more across the footwell and not just a random blob in the corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Those ones you're looking at should be grand then. The side facing LED's will definitely spread out. There is of course always the option of splicing in LED strips to really spread the light.

Brigante Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 Was thinking about that mate but for now just want something easy to plonk straight in the bulb holder. These: http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1438.l2649 Or these? http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1438.l2649 Apparently the second is 'super bright' but am I right in saying they are exactly the same but one guy is selling half the bulbs for twice as much?

Brigante Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 Oh yeah Uncle Stoney, been meaning to ask.. What is your picture from? I know the puppet show and seen it with the little red dude in it but for the life of me can't remember what it's actually called and it's giving me a headache Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 bulbs are exactly the same, go for the cheaper of the two. Programme is Fur TV. Character is Fat Ed. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brigante Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 Oh and I've ordered the bulbs so hopefully they'll come next then I'll just have to give mine away or summin If I can't use em for anything else. When you gonna get round to doing yours? How come some models don't already come with foot well lighting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brigante Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 Sweet, has it got the power socket it in it? How much you pay for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Got it for £40 in mint condition and out of a 06 ST apparently. It has the hole to transplant the socket so that will probably be my Sunday job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigante Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 So your current power socket will go in the new ash tray? Sounds like what I'm gonna do. Hate to break it to you though but I think I bought one myself today out of a mk3 for 25quid including postage ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Good effort mate. That's a !Removed! good price. I got exactly the one I was looking for as I use the socket to power a charger/controller for my iPod and it will fit perfectly with the lid closed so was worth the price and time to find it.

Brigante Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 Can you show me a picture of the one you have? I'm not sure how mines gonna fit exactly cause I aint seen it yet. Been messaging around about 10-20 breakers on eBay asking if they have one and made an offer of around 20quid if they have. Had a load get back to me saying they didn't have one then a breaker finally said today he's got one and wants 25quid including postage so I've paid now I just gotta wait for it and hope it's what I need.

I'll post a picture of the one I have when I get off duty. Could just link you to the eBay listing but the pictures are not too detailed.
