Re: Benzinkopf's 2012 VW POLO 6R MK5 1.2TSI 105HP DSG

Finally i completed my rework on the rear usb incorporating the backlit illumination red and switch “ON” indicator. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200507/d77ecee70b3533db8be4b0efe94f1365.jpg As I have the switch for this 12V-5V converter at the front, having the “On” indicator in this design wil...

Re: Benzinkopf's 2012 VW POLO 6R MK5 1.2TSI 105HP DSG

Today, to avoid my front passenger asking me what the purpose of the switch on the side of the dash, I create a label to say just that for the Door Exit/Warning Light. Happy Labour Day btw to all!

Re: Introducing my Lightning McQueen LM95

been thinking of that as well. but till now, i’m not quite sure where to get those exact material of the self adhesive carpet. so far i found lots of them are the thin and fine velvet type. not that medium rough as inside most cars that have them factory fitted. any idea?

Haha. If you consider countless time spent sitting in the car several nights for darkness moment to decide where and what not, yes. it is indeed lots of efforts. lol And now, it seems like our lockdown going to continue further down the month, i might rework my usb port there, to put some illuminati...

Re: Benzinkopf's 2012 VW POLO 6R MK5 1.2TSI 105HP DSG

Oh no. there’s only one led inside the armrest which is for the front side. Then the other led under the rear seat to light up the area behind the armrest(cupholder/usbport/my 2nd central lock button) at first i plan to just do everything inside the armrest, but ive no way to light up the rear side....

Thanks iichel. The led position from the under the rear seat satisfies my intention.

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200401/0498f03cb39b2e92476e88123436fa7f.jpg Ok. I think I’m done with the ambient lighting. 10 positions: 4 in the doors, 4 for footwells, 2 within the Armrest. All connected to the special Ambient Light wiring from Ciclo with 2 Amp fuse. It will switch on with th...

Re: Benzinkopf's 2012 VW POLO 6R MK5 1.2TSI 105HP DSG

hi Amir, I took pictures, but as you already know, it is necessary to have a good photographic equipment (which I do not have) so that it captures the dim light emitted by the ambient lights that I installed. These images ended up in the recycling bin. :P I promise that the ambient light I installe...

Re: Benzinkopf's 2012 VW POLO 6R MK5 1.2TSI 105HP DSG

Oh yes. you are right. I was testing the light distribution directly from the led without any cover lens. Just to see the light up area in that position. Surely will reduce the brightness with some lens later then i wont be able to capture the light anymore.
