I removed the power wire from it, ran my own wire from the fuse box that is switched 12v and put that on the cigarette lighter.

@Philnanks those lights look great Image

I sprayed my rear badge and wiper delete. Back end looking a little better. Not sure what else to do there. Will probably get some blanking plates for the rear windowsImage

@Caddypeter1

the lid is available for lhd vehicles only.
the trim is also for lhd, and it was some brushed metal, it's been color coded in my van's color.

Hi buddy,

They were from EBay but the German one. The correct ones are so hard to find if you don’t have Aircon. The aircon version won’t work as they have 3 plugs and take a feed from the second plug. If no aircon these are compatible.......

Take a look in the plug to the right. No pins. This is the one you need if NO aircon. Even controls with Econ or Economy won’t work. I do have a good set though if you need aircon ones.

Hope this helps
