[ReTTro fit]

Bought the full led style courtesy light which has the red led down lights ( which are CRAP )

You can see in this pic that they are just tiny flat LEDs on the board that are meant to project through the hole ( which they don't )

So I moded my old unit

Drilled the holes in the factory position

Added 5mm super brights to the internal cage ( easier than soldering to the circuit board )

Do the same the other side, wire them to the illumination pin

Gonna do a white set now

When I think you've done just about everything in your TT you come out and do something else . I'd love to pick your brain for ideas it just seems endless

that looks amazing, think I'd rather the red submarine effect, you've done a better job than Audi!

 

[Templar]

You modding the the new interior light module too for better sub lights Lea ?

Got some 10mm white LEDs too

So thought I'd build these into it to, replace the courtesy bulbs

Suprised you didn't like the original Led lights in the courtesy units...quite effective I thought.

Excellent job

I have the OEM red ones and, as you say, they are crap: so faint you wouldn't know they were on.

I call the white ones map reading lights. With the OEM ones you'd be lost as they're too dim to read a kin map.

There shite Jase, nowhere near bright enough, my old unit I took out with led bulbs in was twice as bright

Fair enough mate just kinda like the overall look of the OE ones, can't remember if the OE leds have flat tops..

Another nice mod, I don't know where you keep getting the idea's from :lol: did you mod the hell out of your previous car's or did the ReTTro fitting begin with the TT?

 

[ReTTro fit]
