Lighting the interior? - MINI Cooper Forum

theminibaka · #1 (**permalink**) May 2nd, 2005, 02:01 PM

Well a few months ago, i was surfing some Japanese site and found a Mini Cooper with its interior illuminated with some lights that look like neons. Unfortunaitly i forgot the link but luckly i have the photos saved on my pc (I attached them to this post).

I really want to do the same thing to my car, could anybody help?

Thanks in advance

Sorry, I don't know about the lights, but I want those floor mats - way cool!

Maybe someone knows about the lights and floor mats!

They could be 1 of 2 things in the cup holders....

EL wire or Ring Cold Cathodes.

Most likley the latter

There is a 3rd option i didnt think of before....

It could be a small ring of perspex with 1 or 2 small LEDs inserted to give that effect.

Would have to experiment with placment and what not to give the right effect.
