What modifications have you made to your car? - Page 4

Look at the how-to here: http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/index.php?thepage=mods

It's a home made affair I did though - none were ever available for the 75/ZT.

Thanks, yes. I went for white light as the amber was too gloomy as footwell lights - it is crisp and clear and even serves a purpose

I didn't use LEDs like Christopher did, I just bought four £1.99 universal interior lights from the local Motorists' Centre.

With 5w festoon bulbs the fronts are fine , but the rears are a tad brighter than the rear interior light. Still look excellent though, and make the seats look as if they are "hovering" above the floor.

Don't know whether to do Puddle lights next, or rear-facing red door edge lights to replace the reflectors. Anyone done either?

My 1991 Rover Sterling had 14 courtesy lights as standard - inc one above each door. My 75 now has 9, the standard 3 front and 2 rear, plus the 4 footwells.
