Like it Kenny; VERY nice.

What white LEDs did you use, was there much clearance with the length of the bulbs in the enclosure?

Just got some off eBay a while ago. Cant remember what ones it is though. Any ones will do really. Its the 501 bulb type.

Just done my footwell lights. Bought white 501's from local car accessory shop at £4.50 for 2. 
Passenger side bit fiddly to get enclosure out of footwell, then need a small flat head screwdriver to prise lens away from enclosure. Original bulb slides out easily, new bulb bit more awkward to re-fit as its a bit bigger, but does fit OK.
Driver's side more awkward. Need "star" screwdriver to release panel under dash, then light pulls out from panel the same as passenger side.
My LED's didnt work 1st time in; was advised to turn them around. Work perfectly now. Nice white/blue light shining. 


After seeing Kenny's pics, might change again to red to match other cabin instrument lighting. Thanks for your tips Kenny.

No worries mate.

I prefer the red so it matches up with the drop light while driving at night.
Then you can move the footwell ones into the roof panel?

Hey guys, i know this has been left for a while.. But i'm struggling to change the passenger side for the footwell lights. The driver's side was a doddle, but the passenger is the pain in my backside!

any tips? -I've even moved the fabric from behind the glove box to give a bit more room, but I can't get the damn connector off, is it just me and my fat fingers or did you guys struggled as well?
