Any come on bro thank you! JS your interior is pretty much the same to install on 👀👀👀👀👀
I know you posted this video a while ago, but I purchased a similar kit from ebay ( they are all the same) and I am having trouble powering them on. I wanted to test the lights out before installing and none of the modules seem to power on when I connect to a 12v supply. Did you ever run into any issue like this? Thanks
Dont suppose you have a link to the exact one you got , because the build and light quality look better than some on there, would be really appreieceated, thanks.
can u send a link for the M140i ? the exact kit that u r using please
Amazing... This switch for on ,off or change color .. i see people change color by motion hand .. but how ?
Mate gr8 work. Would it be possible to explain a wire diagram. Coz mine came with 4 aux boxes 1 main box but no instructions on how to connect them. Could you pl help.
Do you knwo how to turn of the start animation?
do i just need the 10 in 1 kit for the ambient lights and footwell lights? don’t need door handle lights and all that

Hi looks sweet, but the link for were to buy would be good...

Hello bro do you know the name of the app and do you know why my one isn’t turning on i have ordered two sets and both not turning on am i doing something wrong i’m connecting to the fuse box thank you

Hi my friend, I'm trying to install LED ambient lighting on BMW F20 I can't find 12v in the rear doors, do you have a solution?
Does having ambient lighting a modification that insurance needs to know or is it okay to get ambient lighting without notifying your insurance ?
Do you have link for app buddy?
What is the link to order this kit?
I will install soon, but in my modest opinion its more easy and simple to install the main box inside of the fuse box that its situated near steering wheel.But any car have diferent installacion.

You can feel the leds when your press on it between each led are 3 resistors best way is to cut between the resistors you can also pull on the black protective paper on the strips with a small needle and then cut it
Guys. I just installed my ambient lights, but after 5 minutes the led strip doesn’t work -on the dashboard , only the half working, I have no idea why, any advice guys?! Thx also the application as well, I can not change anything

Nice job but as an installer who does thin on a daily basis its better to remove the white connector from the door strips and then drill a small hole to just push the cables trough because where the cable connects is heat shrunk so you wont see it and the hole in your panel wont be as big looks cleaner but overal im impressed

Would u recommend wiring it up with a fuse tap, rather than wiring it directly to the 12v socket wire. Or is there no issue with wiring it to 12v wire. Also if i was to fuse tap is the wire long enough to reach the control module or would i have to extend it

Hey brother I saw you powered the LED strips from the window switches which I was afraid to do bc I thought if I did that they will only work when the window switches would be used. Do you think it should be a problem? Or that depends on the car???

Hey man - no so by doing that, it powers up when the window switch lights come on (So at night time, your window switch will light up, which will then also power up the LED strip)

HI! If you have wired in your fibre optic lights you can use the same wiring points. If not, then I would suggest using "PRO wiring taps" so you can remove them easier when you sell the car
