RETROFIT: W203 Coupe with sedan puddle lamps
Ever wondered what it would take to put in a puddle lamp on a coupe ?
Remove door trim, add SLK puddle lamp wiring and W203 sedan puddle lamp. The door trim has 3 skins. Inside, Outside and inner. Its fun no doubt.
Area taped up and marked. Only 1 sweet zone exists. It is towards the rear of the car near the speaker.
The cut ! You need a dremel for the outer cut, a chisel to make the middle cuts and any useful tool to make the inner cuts.
All done ... looks OEM. Pushes in and out easily. Room for all connections.
Connect wiring to pins 2 and 3 of the door controller main power connector
Night shots are coming .... just not easy to make.
