remember reading previous posts that the wiring is there, just a case of fitting the lights ?

if you search the forum you'll find the info

I simply looked in the footwell and the bulb holders where there Whistle
Sadly, the puddle lights were not, so a bit of a lottery but fingers crossed for you. Thumbs Up

Footwell lights are seperate to puddle lights, some members have reported the wiring being present in the doors, not heard of anyone having it in the mirrors, it would need a different mirror housing.

Aware of the mirror, not the puddle lights in the doors, footwells yes, but, but, I think there is a post on here from a member with a 2012 or 13 saying that they required parts are no longer accidently fitted Question

Noticed a connector under the glove box when I was wiring in my bits today.
Turns out it was an empty bulb holder, no other fittings ie chrome reflector or clear cover.
So stuck a bulb in it and now got a passenger footwell light.

So, question is there a proper footwell light unit in the FL2 under the glovebox or becasue mine is just GS spec did they reckon it wasn't even worth adding a bulb? FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.

Thanks Paul, will have a check on the drivers side Thumbs Up
But on your current model do you have an actual light unit there? FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.

Photo won't upload for some reason?
It's just a black plastic receptacle with a lamp holder in it.
I was going to fit LEDS in them but used them in the puddle lights, need to order some more as they look way better Thumbs Up
