Berlin Tekna - Interior Lighting Conversion
Peter, if you are going to use LEDs, it will barely consume 500mA. For what reason would you do that?

I am using leds because they longer lasting , and low power consumption & look good.On saying that, there is no need you upgrade the fuse. The other question I asked is that the connections on connector M54 that I should use are 3 & 8 . Is that correct ? Thanks, Peter

Yes, connection 3 for +12V and connection 8 for ground. Absolutely no problem using LEDs here. I have no single bulb in my car except mirror vanity lights, which I anyway don't use.
PS:As there is wide color spectrum of white LEDs, from warm (2700K) to cold (6000K), you get the best results and eye friendliness with 4000-4500K which is called neutral or natural white. It's again of personal preference but I do like these the most and I have them installed in all interior lights. Also, these are hard to get, as everyone is after cold 6000K, which for me is very annoying when you turn it ON at night.To give you some insights how neutral white looks like, look to this video FFWD to 0:55 duncho2015-04-14 13:55:15

Thanks duncho, I just needed confirmation on which connections to use. I thought that 3 and 8 were the correct ones to use Thanks. I had planned on using to white leds for under the doors and the blue for the footwells. Yes the video did look amazing , but I don't have an app for that type of application. Thanks again, Peter

Hi duncho again, I have noticed that there is a switch panel on the lower right of the dash that houses some switches and buttons. This panel is different from one shown in the video. This must be the J10 QQ and not the J11 QQ 2015 model.Is there special procedure to remove this panel when doing the lighting mods ? Peter

Peter, post a link or screen print of which video / dash panel you refer to.
