randal 0 Posted May 7, 2005 umm, the switch that turns on the interior light? do they say "corrado" or can you get other stuff on there? I'd have "WATCH YER FEET SUNSHINE, RESPRAYS AIN'T CHEAP" :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted May 7, 2005 do they play tunes when you open the door aswell?...or just light up? the switch that turns on the interior light? yeah ...id agree that the first place to start would be there mate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

randal 0 Posted May 7, 2005 You must have seen the state of my sills! Will be getting them done when the new door and wing get sprayed up (and bumper and bonnet...) :roll: Oh well, at least the rear quarters, roof, boot and rear bumper are OK :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vwcvr6 0 Posted May 7, 2005 do they play tunes when you open the door aswell?...or just light up? lol no they dnt play tunes! does the door switch have a 12v positive connection and do i just get the other wire grounded!!! i tink u can get only the model names on the sills got it off ebay!! thxs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted May 9, 2005 the door switch is a switched EARTH! Connect a permanent fused 12V to the live of the sill thingy and the earth to the door switch... that'll mean that whenever you open the door, the circuit becomes earthed and they'll light up... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted May 9, 2005 tag the earth wire to the rear of the door switch and run the live to a fused +12v Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
