Cool Ice Footwell Lights

[stokeballoon]

I had a spare pair of Ice Blue Sidelight bulbs that i had removed from my MK4 years ago, was going to fit them to the ED30, but powerbulbs very kindly sent me some Osram blue jobs.

Today I had a spare 15 mins and fitted them to my footwell lights, really make a difference.  i took pics, but with my poor camera, they didnt come out too well.

good quick mod, the only problem was getting the drivers side buld holder out, ended up talking the trim tray out, after releasing the OBD port (i think it was) from its holder.

Pictures don't do it justice.

Pic looks just as yellow as OEM bulbs! But I know that photos rarely show just how good uprated bulbs are in particular!

But I like the idea - may have to do this myself!

Please bear in mond the camera used was last seen on the ark.

The light there now is a nice bright white, not as the Retro camera has shown! 

It was a doddle to do, but a right Tw!T to photo!

What type of bulb is needed for the footwell lights like the mod done here?

Also, does anyone know the type of bulb needed for the 'surrounding area lighting' for the bulbs under the wingmirrors? Mine are much too yellow looking!!

501 footwell lights

i think the "useless lights" under the wing mirror are festoon or 501s aswell
