Can any of you guys get hold of the door caps?? and different colour LED`s to go in them??? I would like some blue leds in both doors, as my mate has done it on his golf gti turbo and looks very good at nite.. Cheers all

just go to maplin and get some 1.5mm 12v LED's in blue ;)

yup i did mine for about £2

just buy some 3mm ultrabright blue LED's and some 470ohm resistors

then take your door lock surround apart and replace the red LED's with one new blue LED with a resistor in series

job done :)
 
just out of interest, and semi-related.

The doorcaps on the Leon are blanks - ie without doorpins. Does anyone know if you can get these blanks seperately (so i can remove my door pins as I have an import which has them - and make one with a blue LED in?)

Cheers
 
the first time i took the door cards off, i must admit it was a bit daunting. i had done it to both my other previous cars but not the ibiza. i had no manual for the ibiza so was a bit harder!

but now i've taken them off several times and i can get a door card off in not much more than 60 seconds. its really very easy once youve done it once!

go on!.. give it a go! ;)

as said above, Maplins is your best bet as you can pick and choose colour/size etc.

Ive done this mod to both doors a while ago,see this thread

If you want an led in the passenger side your gonna have to remove door cards as you need to do a bit of cabling.
