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 :unsure: Is there some way of adjusting the brightness or should I have got some of these bulbs instead to spread the light more?

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:

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.

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

  • Author

Are there any other types of LEDs I should be looking at that spread the light better?

Unfortunately brightness is fixed.

Don't go too bright though, you don't want Blackpool illuminations. (or do you?)

:D

  • Author

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.

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.

Was thinking about that mate but for now just want something easy to plonk straight in the bulb holder.

These:

Or these?

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?

  • Author

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 :unsure:

Bulbs are exactly the same, go for the cheaper of the two.

Programme is Fur TV.

Character is Fat Ed.

That's the f*cker!! lol knew he was fat ed but it's been doing my nut in since i joined the forum trying to remember what the program was called :P

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?

I think Ford do it just to annoy us.

I may get on it this weekend while I'm fitting my ashtray.

Ford the nob heads. You should have got a ghia :P

What type of ashtray? Not the one with the garage door?

Sweet, has it got the power socket it in it? How much you pay for it?

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.

  • Author

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 ;)

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.

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.

Night shots of LEDS!

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.
