the first try is never right and I don't worry about things like the color - I just want to print it to see where I need to tune in the design.

fits good after 3 tries, ready for paint and finishing - this time I use black because it will hide the best

Here you can see I designed some small circuit boards for the ambient foot well lighting. I design and build all of my own custom circuitry by hand. The main board (the biggest one) feeds power to the other ones, and it gets its supply from the parking light output.

Here you can see where the main footwell board gets mounted. I designed a bracket in CAD, and 3d printed it out of high temp abs. It attaches to the support on the drivers knee bolster side of the IP.

here you can see things installed on the bottom of one of the front seats. The surface of the boards get "potted" with a conformal coating to keep moisture out.

All of the boards are fitted with connectors, so it goes together and comes apart like factory

here you can see the bracket for the rear 2nd row footwells. It attaches under the front seats and shoots back. I tapped a small threaded hole into the rod that runs under the seat for a mini m4 fastener.

I ran a custom harness from the left side of the IP down towards the back, under the 2nd row seats, and then back forward on the passenger side of the car so I could get the right side.

Here I used a new style "accordian rubber" and a plug that fits the hole I cut. I used super flexible silicone wiring and replaced all of the factory wires. I also added connectors. The only thing bad about doing it this way, is that you have to remove the door panel to remove the door (which is not a big deal if you ask me)

I added circuits for puddle lights, and the ambient lights. Here I have not installed the connectors yet.

I designed 12 circuit boards in CAD, that will give me custom lights on the door panels. Here you can see I am in the process of making the boards. These will be acid etched.

I designed a template out of tape, that can be used reversibly to cut a hole in the door handles of the door panels. This will allow me to mount an LED which shoots down in the handle. I want it to perfectly placed the same on all 4 doors. This is why I did it this way.

This is the first hole that I used to make the template for the others. When I put this back on the door panel it will shine downward.
