So I said a while ago I am looking into this, well they arrived today and this is the result. It looks blue in the pics but they are bright white. LOVING IT!

Sorry for the mess, but the boot was my workbench during this exercise... lol

I suggest you get the 10piece kit if you want to do the boot aswell. So you will need:
2x Footwell
2x Door
1x Main Dome
2x Reading
1x Glovebox
2x Boot

My pics arent with the reading lights, its only the main lights. Just ordered 2 more reading bulbs. They all the same bulb.

It's not something I really thought about but the LEDs certainly provide a much cleaner light!!

I've thought about it after my boy did his BMW, but when I put an LED in the boot it wouldnt work, I did try one of thos canbus LED's but still nothing. Maybe it was faulty. :eusa-think:

LED's only work 1 way around (polarity sensitive), if you flipped the bulb around it would probably have worked. Mine didnt work at first either but when i flipped the bulb it went on. Instructions from buyer also said to make sure they go right way round :beer:

Sounds like a good idea but i wouldnt even know where to start LOL! My A6 had ambient lighting in the footwell but it never dimmed, its was just always on. I can maybe look at doing that?

Yeah tried that, well my son tried that as he know's more about this than I do :oops:
To be honest I think it was a dodgy LED, :eusa-think:
I will look into again as it does look very good, especially as the dash lights are already a whitish light, I'm surprised Peugeot didn't go for this "look" on all the internal lights in the first place or at least do it on the new model.

Yup me too Jactac. Cambus bulbs are old technology and are totally inferior to LEDs.
