haha. even if its a good one, i already replaced my dimmer switch to a single dimmer without the headlight levelling.

but. i love the led light fixtures that you use. small n box shape. it will give lots possibilities of installation! thank you[emoji1360]

Tell me some reasonable reason to use the Dimmer at the lowest level.

If the Dimmer was useful and essential, all car manufacturers would include it in all its vehicles. :)
Traveling long distances! I rarely use the dimmer, unless I travel for hours (Switzerland - Portugal) I need to put the light as low as possible to not fatigue my eyes.

I've seen it done at drive2.ru but I'm fairly confident that my soldering skills are not sufficient.. :mrgreen:
In Portugal you can have someone do it for 100€ :mrgreen:

I'm afraid that in the deep overhaul that I'm doing to my 6R I'll have to retighten all the screws. :)

My dear friend ORiOn, pay attention because I'll omit some details:

- In order to visit my Russian friend firegrafik and to compare with him some 'magnificent' works that we did in our Sedan/6R and that supposed a great effort, I'm able to travel '45 times' from Spain to Russia with the maximum Dimmer level without suffering any type of fatigue.

   It only remains to know what's the maximum value for my 6R Dimmer. :lol:

btw ciclo, i remember i now have specific ambient lighting fuse from your bcm adaptation wiring last time. just to confirm, the output voltage from this is dimmable using the same dimmer switch right? and what you re planing now is different?

The output signal of fuse SB1 (SB1b) in your 6R according to the diagram on the last page of the installation guide is a signal 58 (side lights) is not a signal 58d (after the Dimmer).

Totally logical. Me and you, we did not know anything about the type of ambient lights that you would install in the future ... the possibilities are endless (LEDs, neon, with regulators included, etc ...)

So let's list the surprises we'll be seeing from master ciclo:
- OEM 6R0 heated front seats
- OEM Plug and Play Helix sound system, round version in the spare wheel space
- OEM 7L6 ambient lights
- OEM Porsche Passenger Airbag Deactivation in centre console
- OEM 6R0/7E0 front and rear PDC
- Something with 230V? Probably OEM
- OEM 6R0 J367 battery monitor? :lol:
- ?? :mrgreen:
- OEM holidays

Some small corrections:

- OEM 6R0 heated front seats. Thermal elements from Skoda Rapid/Seat Toledo.
- OEM Plug and Play Helix sound system, round version in the spare wheel space. +2 rear tweeters... everything is plug and play from this perspective. Plug and play no needs instructions... In any case it is extremely easy to do without instructions. :lol:
- OEM 7L6 ambient lights
- OEM Porsche Passenger Airbag Deactivation in centre console. Indicator light only. I love the effect of the check that is made on this light every time I turn to ignition ON. Supreme!
- OEM 6R0/7E0 front and rear PDC. Front PDC only (7E0 last version), rear is from factory.
- Something with 230V? Probably OEM. No. I have an external converter that works perfectly in any of my three 12v sockets.
- OEM 6R0 J367 battery monitor? :lol: . Yes, I already have the parts. :lol:
- OEM rear 12v socket. E.g, for my German impact tool to remove the wheels, for Tyre mobility system, etc...
- OEM Tyre mobility system. (perfect in combination with Direct TPMS)
- OEM Clubsport driver's airbag.
- OEM Last model of plate lights.
- OEM Pre-filter for Climatronic system
- etc... (renew several parts, ... :mrgreen: )


- OEM holidays. Yes, I'm dependent on the things my wife does, the best and incredible person in this world (IMHO).
