I've not had them on a Mini but on a Lexus and Merc. They are really cool.

ScottieCoop - do they come with wiring parts or will i have to visit my local electrical store...:D

Are the door plates easy enuff to fit? - i'm thinking of running the power feed off the footwell lights so when opening/closing the car the whole interior lights up blue - i've changed my interior lights so everything is blue to match my Indi Blue MINI! lol :cool::cool: (pretty cool at night coz you can play 'spot the blue, glowing MINI'! :cool::D )

Mines came with wiring parts. I got one of my brother's to fit for me. He made a good job you could not see any wires. Mines used to light up bright blue really cool.

Infact mgemie. I am thinking of getting Ambient lighting fitted to the interior my brother recokns he can do it. The lights will be up at the review mirror.

It will come on with my headlights.

I've said ok only if no wires can be seen.
