Nope. What do you need to know, though?

I wanna attempt this, just unsure of what the wiring would look like. Im assuming, you mainly just tapped into the cluster wiring section of the dash loom and dome light, didnt have to do anymore wiring to each rear doors? or you had to because it wouldnt know which rear door is opened or not?

Cool, do it!! My retrofit is on a hatchback, so only two doors. A sedan would require additional independent wires also to each rear passenger door.

The wiring looks like the wiring diagram I included in the first post. Everything you need to do this retrofit is here.

Finally got around to completing this works great! well it did work well for the first few weeks then now the rear driver side door indicator wont turn off even though door is closed. Checked the line, line has continuity and is getting power, switch at the door grounds the system which should turn off the indicator at the cluster however it doesnt, swapped the switch just in case and still didnt fix the problem. Funny part is all pins at the cluster get power but when i plug in the plug at the cluster, all wire except the driver rear doesnt get power. I have 2 spare clusters that ive swapped and all show rear driver door still on even though door is closed. Bit of a mystery, any ideas?

Oh -- didn't catch that. No, that's highly unlikely. I'll pore over the wiring diagram and see if anything stands out that might cause that.

Thanks for this guide! I am following along with my EG9 cluster and so far have the boot light working (the easiest part haha).

Quick question regarding the WHT/BLU wire: Do I need to split this wire so that it goes to both the existing connector (where it currently is), as well as to the new 7 pin connector?

This would be a yes.

Thanks for the guide, I finally got it done! I have a RHD 4 door so for the most part it was the same, but there are some differences.

Hello,
Just a quick question. If my cluster PCB already has the diode installed, I just need to splice the WHT/BLU wire of Pin 7 (Door Open Connector) with the WHT/BLU wire of pin B5 (Cluster Connector). Thats it?

Yes, that's correct. This will make all the lights turn on when the key is at the ON position.

Hello @deschlong. Could you please tell me the bulb type or part number on the PCB itself ? of the door open circuit.
