Thank you for a brilliant tutorial very well explained and the step by step guide makes it easy for people to get a better idea of what’s involved
Great work bro, wish they all were like this
Great vid buddy. Very clear. Thanks :)
Great video! Thanks. I just ordered them for my A6 C7 BiT. I will def not use gloves though😬
You are genuine man👍👍
Great Video, but how did you know which wires to cut/connect to on the foot-well connector wires?
Love it. I want to do this to my BMW.
Great,thankyou, I knew it was straightforward.
Awesome work bro!
Great video tutorial!👌🏻Thank you. Looks great! Any idea where or how can I buy this? A link or something? Thanks in advance. Cheers!
Fantastic video 🤘🏻💯
Patience of a saint i mean me btw 😂 Great vid mate keep it up
Great video, thx. I am trying to buy one, but one site says it works with 5 V. If I connect it to the courtesy light, it will be 12 V. I’m confused… Where did you get yours..??
Looks like the type i fitted to my Z4. Only problem the cable entry to the unit wasn't sealed. Water got in, it shorted and the wires caught fire.
Great video man , where can I buy these? can you please share the link? Thanks
My 540 came with illuminated ones from the factory. You can’t see the cable on a factory fit so perhaps you could run it some other way. My factory ones are ‘on or off’ and don’t do the sequential display like yours. They are also a different graphic. Nice touch to the car all the same 👍
Good video pal! Nice that it covers everything. Cheers
Great video. How do you wire the rear?
This is so cool but to me makes more sense having one for every door. How can you actually make the wireing for the back ones?
the video is perfect you detail everything very well, I want to know where I can buy it and if it can be installed in a 2018 bmw m3

I would have soldered the wires. I have also had good service just back-probing the wires into the connector. I did that when I added extra LED lighting to the trunk.
Does anyone know if i can wire it into the door welcome light? My footwell light will only turn on when i start the car due to aftermarket ambient light
Do you have a web link to where you can buy them from
Got some rechargeable ones to skip wiring, but barely last 5 days before recharging again
Nice... What's the link to those sill plate? all I see is those aftermarket custom plates!

Solder and heat shrink when joining wires much more professional job and looks better than those things you used to join the wires !!!!
Does anyone know how to actually remove the stock sill without breaking it? Every video I have found, they lever it out and break a clip or the sill where it holds the clip in place. Mine rattles and I want to fix it properly.
Do you have a installation guide for innova 2019

Is it possible that the light is in one Position from the Start?
Do you have a link for those plates?
What are these rims called? They seem to be not so common for some reason.
why did u cut the wire when u can use quick splices for like 5 bucks
Why don't you put wire through the holes in the sill?, can it not be pushed through?
Thanks bro.
Nice, where did you get them
Thanks great video but watching you struggle with those gloves was a little hard to watch LOL but very helpful and it looks great.

Why didn’t you use suitcase connectors instead of cutting the wires???
Great video. I think I would use wire taps instead of cutting the wires personally. So I've seen people install these, and almost bought them about 100 times. But I was curious how easily they get scratched up. You've had yours about 7 months. Do the plates themselves still look half decent?

I think you did a great job! My only concern being a tech for 20 years is where the wire goes under the door seal I would be worried over time it would rub through and short out do you think if you took a cut off wheel and made a small relief cut so it had a pocket for it to sit in? I'm not trying to be rude by any means. Again great job

Hi Tecky, any gauge will work just don't go above 24 gauge. You can try to find 18 gauge, that may be more common. The smaller the wire the easier it is for you to run and hide in the trim. Hopefully that helped.

The sill lights will illuminate when the doors are opened and goes off when the doors are closed that’s why it’s best to connect them to your interior/ footwell lights
