Footwell Lamp

Hi,
Is it possible to retro fit the footwell lamps on a GS, as they are not standard on my model. Also where in the footwell do the bulbs go?

Also it it possible to retro fit puddle lamps (bottom of door)?

Cheers.

look under dash above your shins normal, you will see the vent ducts for the heating, on top of these is a keyhole type hole, thats where the bulb holders fit At work

The footlamp lamp holders were already fitted, just no lamps in them, two 5w wedge lamps bought, inserted and working fine, cost me a quid!!
I will look into the puddle lamps, the door has blanking plates fitted, if the wiring is present then I will fit them, if the price is OK.

As with most cars there seems to be a standard wiring loom and depending on model denotes what is fitted. The same thing was true with my traded in BMW, had a 6 disc interchanger fitted as the loom was there from new. You would be amazed what a bottom of the range car can have fitted If you take a look Thumbs Up
