LED Replacement Door Pins
Posted: Sat Mar 18, 2006 11:28 pm
as many know the door pins are a security issue, so i replaced mine with red 8mm leds to fit in with my scheme, fit as below:
note: will only work if you have the always on power windows bridge installed
( jumper between pins 30 and 87 in relay socket 113 )
remove door panels, drill door pin hole out to width of led holder,
bout 10mm in my case, connect the negative side of the led( flat side) to pin 5 of your electric mirror connector, and the positive side to either of the wires via 600ohm resistor to the window motor ( both positive when not moving window )
if your car doesnt have electric mirrors installed, attach a solder lug to with a small bolt to your door somewhere as a ground.
