(Need Guidance) Rear Passenger, Boot and Glove box Light
My car has company fitted front foot well. They are under dashboard for driver and passenger. They are 7L0947415 which has 5W5 bulb.
Dome light (6Q0947105M) which has a single 10W bulb.
As i am bit fan of male female connectors and or have less guts to splice cables. I have made one so i can run these additional lights for rear passengers, boot and glovebox.
There are 5 numbers of 7L0947415 which i have procured.
Expected to behave same as existing lights ie light up on door open.
10W (dome) + 2x 5W (footwell) = 20 W is current total consumption
If i add additional 2 footwell, 2 boot and 1 Glovebox then consumption would be 45W odd -- recipe for blow fuse.
SO i have three questions here --
can i take current from some other location/s instead of existing footwell so we can save the blowing of fuse? -- directly from dome?
Replacing all bulbs with LED so power consumed would be less than total consumption (but i am not getting warm white LED). These one have very less power consumption -- Osram Retrofit 2780CW-02B0 LED Bulb (12V, 0.5W)
And how should i route cables?
-- under transmission tunnel for rear footwell?
-- along other cables for trunk?
In future i would like to do something like benzinkopf (and/or projection logo) --

there is already one trunk light, so am not sure if this would be applicable to me.
