Bit of a work in progress at the moment, going to see if I can fit some daytime running to the dub tub.

I'm going to use some white LEDs mounted in some 5mm LED holders. The LED holders fit perfectly in the existing holes in the front of the dub tub.

This is just a mock up using some yellow LED xmas tree lights

Super! Check the positioning regs though - don't want the plan to be spoiled by some DVLA requirement. Rolling Eyes

Stuff the regs, they're going on no matter what. Will put them on a separate switch so if mr DVLA has a problem they're show lights Wink

Naughty..............but nice! Very Happy

Great idea kiteman, perhaps you could adapt one of those scrolling led sign contraptions, then you could write something like 'you've just been Kombi'd' ...or 'nice Porsche, but I can do 70 ..... and I have a fridge full of cold beer'
