Why is this? Clearance issue?

OK I was wondering if it was something you tried. I had not even considered puddle lights until I saw yours. Your cars looking good.

Quick question

For the under the dash lights, where did you wire into. I'm thinking the headlight switch so they come on at night, but im not sure where it is.

And, how did you do the puddle lights?

Thanks, so if you have the door sills, could you somehow measure their thickness/height

The puddle and the foot lights are wired in parallel with each other.
Then they are hooked up to a 3 way switch.
Position1: Both triggered on door switch
Position2: completely off
Position3: Both on directly form the battery

I wouldnt drive with them on unless yours arent very bright.
Puddle lights are just an LED strip thats attached with double sided tape. There are 2 gaps on the bottom of the door between the metal and the platic through which i ran the wire and from there through the door rubber boot into the cabin

Yoink!

Damn ok so that is seriously what I may need to go buy. Looking to get a spare one so I can mock up/fab a housing for a rear camera that angles out in an OEM way. Damn!

Best of luck with the Zelas-mod (also i vote blue led cupholders, keep it Black N Blooo)
