Wire them to the sidelight feed on the stereo or cig lighter.
The biggest problem with these is getting a decent pic as digy cameras don't pic them up well
Still one of my favourite mods - subtle but cool - other minis seem so dark inside

I found the centre one's the easiest to do, then came the driver side one, that was OK as well, but how the heck do you get to the passenger side one.

I can get the vent off ok, but the gap is so small to get the LED through and with the air bag next to it as well

Has anyone managed to to this as well, if so how did you get the LED in place?

Also where did you earth it to?

Thanks.



Will try to take some Pic's Later when its dark.
