Feckin' Courtesy lights....

Stick LED festoon bulbs in your interior lights!

 

You need a fused live and a switched earth (from door switch) running to cab light. You can earth the light switch (for on all the time) in the cab roof. Cable down the B pillar for the sliding door switch, which can either do the cab light or rear interior light. Front doors: just run a cable joining the two switches, so they're connected in parallel.

 

thanks for the input guys....investigating luminous paint and torches....

switch contacts are good....LED festoon already installed..looks like it's a peel back the headliner job

 

Can't beat a good festoon! Taking down the side of the headlining is pretty easy, if you have to do it.

 

But you need to stick something like a cable tie in there to stop the little LED festoon PCB going round and round when you operate the three way switch in the dome light , otherwise it gradually walks round until it is lighting up the inside of the fitting.

 

you know your stuff....

 

job for tomorrow methinks

 

Got one of these in works van,

 

If you need cable, etc let me know.

 

I take it it's a remote....I'm liking the idea

 

yeah handy cos it comes on and stays on where needed fink I got from Blt or was that what I had for b,fast.
Just hope no one else on campsite has one or it could ******* you right off.

 

could be fun, when folks have gone to bed...

in fact I may just buy one and seek your van out at a show, around 3 AM....

 

I used to have somthing like that to turn the neons under my rs turbo on and off years ago

 

nice motors those RS turbos...

 

Id love another without underbody neons of course

I loved working the 8 valve cvh

 

Why not fit a discourteous light instead? I've got one that mutters "c**t" every time I open the cab door. Just a thought !
