LED lighting for interior door handles of Lada Vesta - selection and installation


The Lada Vesta Prestige car is equipped with additional lighting for the car door handles. The backlight is an LED module, which is attached to the back of the door card and illuminates the handles through a special hole. However, it is worth noting that not every Lada Vesta Prestige has backlighting, the fact is that they began to be installed only in 2022, but the wiring for the backlight in these trim levels was laid in advance, which greatly facilitates self-installation.

Work progress

Installing LED lighting for the interior door handles of the Lada Vesta is not too difficult. You just need to follow the recommendations.

First of all, you should connect the resistance to minus or plus. As Andrey noted, he put it in the positive wire. Resistance is necessary to reduce the brightness of the inscription. Otherwise, it will distract you from the road, especially at night.

The door cards should be removed by unscrewing the bolts and removing the trim from the clips.

You also need to remove the power window control unit on the driver's door. You should work carefully so as not to break the plastic latches of the block.

The next step is to drill a hole in the handle panel. It is better to drill with a 2 mm drill, but it is only suitable if resistance soldering will take place on site, directly during the installation process. Otherwise, a larger diameter drill (4 mm) will be required so that the pre-soldered resistance can be pulled into the hole.

Room lighting

Lighting for the Lada Vesta number is provided by two light bulbs. Lamps often burn out, so drivers must be able to fix this problem themselves and replace the lamps.

The procedure is not complicated and does not require special skills or abilities.

Sequence of events

Use a sharp object to pry the lid of the lantern. Take it out. Remove the lamp and install a new one in its place. A 5V light bulb is built into the lantern. Reinstall the flashlight in reverse order. When removing the flashlight, pry it with a sharp object from the left side.

The process of installing LEDs on Vesta door handles

Any warrior can perform tuning of door handles on the Lada Vesta independently. Work must be done in the following order:

  1. Remove the inner door trim and the power window unit on the driver's side, find the wiring harness for connecting the LEDs. In some trim levels, wiring for this function is provided from the factory, even if the car is not originally equipped with backlighting.
  2. Make a hole inside the plastic niche on the side. You need to drill it with a drill, with a drill of the same diameter as the diode. The wires will pass through this hole.
  3. Insert the diode into the hole and seal the gaps with glue. It is important to use high-quality glue or body sealant that will hold the LED well in the socket despite vibration. Before installation, the diode can be lightly sanded so that it produces diffused light.

For those who want to make their Lada recognizable and bright, there are special door trims with a glowing Vesta logo in different colors. They are sold as a set for rear and front doors and include, in addition to the trims themselves and the LED module, fasteners for installing elements inside the door. They are installed as follows:

  1. A hole is drilled inside the niche for the handle through which the wires will pass. The door trim from the inside will first need to be dismantled
  2. The accessory with the Vesta inscription is fixed inside the recess for the handle. It is inserted easily, as it is specially designed for this purpose. Before installing the inserts, it is better to bend the edges of the protective film so that it can be easily removed after installation.
  3. The backlight is connected via a resistor included in the kit. It is necessary so that the inscriptions on the door handles do not shine too brightly and do not distract the driver with their light.

Materials

Illumination is realized by installing an LED strip. You can buy it not only in many stationary stores, but also on the Internet. The cost of such a product is low, and therefore such a modification will definitely not hit the budget. The most popular sites with articles and prices are given in the table.

However, before purchasing it is worth clarifying some points - the length of the tape, the color and brightness of its glow. For those who are in no hurry to make a purchase, the option of ordering from Aliexpress is perfect, since products there are generally cheaper, although delivery is much longer.

In addition, you will need an aluminum profile (it is recommended to take the thinnest one) and wiring.

Connecting LEDs

There are several ways to connect LED backlighting to Vesta. The simplest one is to power it from the power window module. This is done like this:

  • On the driver's door the connection is made to the power window unit. The blue wire with a black stripe connects to power, and the black wire to ground.
  • On the remaining doors, the red wire is connected to power, and the black wire to ground.

But rear electric lifts are present only in the “Lux” configuration, so everyone else will have to look for other ways to install the backlighting of the handles on Vesta. One method involves using the ISO contacts of the radio connector. A6 is connected to the “plus”, A8, respectively, to the “ground” of the car.

Checklist for installing a lampshade

  • Take the necessary measurements;
  • Using the obtained parameters, cut out a stencil from available materials (paper, cardboard);
  • Disassemble the lampshade, mark the recesses for the bolts on the model;
  • On the ceiling of the cabin, select the place where you would like to install the lamp;
  • Fix the stencil on the ceiling where the lamp will be installed with adhesive tape;
  • Trace the outlines;
  • Attach the lamp, make sure the parameters match;
  • You need to cut the sheathing with a tool with a very sharp blade to eliminate uneven, torn edges;
  • After cutting, reattach the lampshade and correct the contours;
  • Where the screws will be screwed in, attach metal clamps;
  • Secure the lampshade.

You can connect the device to a car radio, a standard lighting fixture, or a luggage compartment lamp.

Is it worth spending time and money on door lighting?

Illumination of the interior handles of the Lada Vesta is not mandatory, but a very functional and interesting addition. Making it yourself is inexpensive and easy. A set of overlays with a luminous inscription will cost the owner approximately 1,300 rubles.

It is easiest to install the backlight on cars that are initially equipped with a special connector or have power windows on all doors, into which it is easy to connect the accessory. But even if there are no such connectors, installing the backlight will not cause difficulties for the driver who has an understanding of what the car’s electrical system is. Including dismantling the door cards, the process takes no more than two hours.

Illumination of car handles performs two functions simultaneously

In addition to the fact that it gives the car's interior a stylish and unusual look, illuminated handles help you easily navigate in the dark and make the trip more comfortable. Starting from 2022, Vesta cars in the top configuration are equipped with backlighting as standard. If such a function is not provided in your car, you can purchase and install the backlight yourself.

Ready solution

There are ready-made illuminated door handle covers. All that is required is to install them and connect.

We make a hole in the niche behind the handle. We fix the accessory with the inscription “Vesta” inside the door handle.

Lada Vesta - metallic angkor color

Angkor is a chocolate tone, which is decorated with a metallic gray shade. Under the sun's rays, Angkor turns to a golden, yellow color.

Looks great in cloudy weather, the car turns brown. Pros. It shimmers beautifully and looks bright and stylish in any weather. Cons.

The coverage is quite rare; there is an additional payment of 12 thousand rubles.

Reviews

Artem: “I’m not delighted with the color after I looked at it in reality, and not in photographs. For the Lada Vesta, the blue color is much more suitable, and a black car also looks better.”

Roman: “Very deep tone - it seems like a chameleon. Constantly changing, depending on the time of day, weather, lighting.”

Olga: “The car looks bright, but not vulgar - that’s what I’ve been looking for for quite a long time. At first I considered a silver Lada Vesta or a Phantom, but still settled on brown. Very beautiful"

How to connect a diode to power

Working with LED lighting is not that difficult. The mechanical part of the installation can be performed by almost any motorist. As for connecting the diode to the power supply, many people have difficulties and questions.

If you do not understand automotive electrics, the best decision would be to seek help from a specialist.

In practice, most motorists in this case use a cigarette lighter to supply power to the transmission knob illumination LED. Or you can connect to the dimensions. In the second case, the backlight will be activated only in the dark, when the driver needs it.

Each car has its own wiring features, and therefore the power connection diagram for the LED may be different. Here it is better to study the nuances of your car, choose the most suitable source, and then make the connection yourself, or by turning to an auto electrician for help.

There are a lot of options for implementing such an idea. And every enthusiast can contribute something new and original. Some people do dual illumination by connecting a different color LED to the power supply from the reverse gear. This allows you, when reversing, to change the backlight of the handle from white (blue or any other) to red or some other selected color.

The main task is to prepare the handle and implement the appropriate power supply for the specific vehicle. But in general, almost anyone who sets a similar goal can do this kind of work with their own hands.

Almost every vehicle owner dreams of high-quality car tuning, who wants to modify the car and make it “to suit themselves.” Do-it-yourself illumination of the gearshift lever is considered a very original way to decorate the interior.

List of necessary tools

In order for the backlit gear shift knob to have an attractive appearance, you will need:

  • LED (color should depend solely on the preferences of the car owner);
  • resistor (1 kOhm);
  • stationery knife;
  • soldering iron;
  • laser printer;
  • glue gun with a transparent rod.

Step-by-step instruction

First of all, the car owner must remove the transmission handle, after which, with extreme caution, it will be necessary to remove the small glass located at the top of the handle (its location depends on the specific car model). Since the glass was painted at the factory, you need to get rid of the old paint using GOI paste and a felt wheel.

Illuminating the gearshift lever requires time and care. The owner of the car will need to create a drawing using a PC and printer. The main task of the vehicle modernizer at this stage is to make a stencil according to which the light will penetrate only where the driver needs it, in other words, it is necessary to create a light filter that would glow at the location of the numbers, but not beyond them.

It is very important, when upgrading the speed switch, to adapt the place for the purchased LED and glue, which will subsequently glow from the backlight created. To do this, you should remove everything unnecessary from the gearshift knob so that the base can then be inserted into it.

In addition, the handle must be equipped with a vertical hole through which power will be supplied to the LED, after which the unit will be “stuffed” - an LED with a soldered wire and resistor will be inserted into the middle of the handle.

Experienced motorists note that an illuminated gear shift knob will look more original if the LED is placed not in the center of the structure, so that it shines exclusively upward, but is directed to the side. This trick helps to distribute the light evenly.

Using a knife, you need to determine the place to apply the glue and fill the space as carefully as possible. It is better to spend a little more time on this procedure, but feed the glue in small portions rather than removing the excess later. The transparent glue, applied with a glue gun, is easy to handle; the car owner can wait a few seconds so that the hot mixture does not leave burns on the fingers, and then carefully position the glue as needed.

The created illumination of the gearshift lever will look more beautiful if a paper circle is placed in it, playing the role of a scattering element of the structure. The previously prepared drawing using the printer must be placed directly above the circle of white paper.

As a result, all that remains is to replace the gearshift knob and connect the wire to the power source. It is best to connect the device to the cigarette lighter using the services of an experienced electrician.

New body

It is unlikely that all external body panels of the new Lada will be new. The owners will not give the go-ahead for this. Therefore, most likely, only the 2022 Lada Vesta restyling will be presented. But quite deep, taking into account the “moving” to a new platform.

Start of sales in Russia and competitors

Sales of the Lada Vesta 2022 will start next year. Unless, of course, VAZ postpones the premiere date - and this has happened at the Togliatti plant more than once. A little earlier you will be able to watch the Lada Vesta 2022 test drive video . After all, it’s possible that the factory workers will let journalists ride pre-production copies.

As for the rivals, among them:

  • of course, Renault Logan, assembled in the same place - in Togliatti. The “base” costs only 577 thousand, but is extremely modest - one airbag, amplifier, ABS and, in fact, that’s all. The modification for 645 thousand is equipped much more richly. There is also a “crossover” body kit – such a sedan is valued at a minimum of 696 thousand rubles;
  • “twins” Kia Rio and Hyundai Solaris – from 775 and 756 thousand, respectively.

Lada Vesta: Classic, Comfort, Luxe, Multimedia

In October 2022, new versions of the Lada Vesta sedan, equipped with a 1.8 liter (122 hp) engine and a manual gearbox, went on sale, the AvtoVAZ press center reported.

General conclusions

Of course, the prices of the Lada XRAY trim levels are quite high, considering that the version reviewed is not an all-wheel drive SUV, and the designers refused to even claim the title of an urban SUV. Nevertheless, even in the form of a “high hatchback” the model looks extremely attractive (both in visual and aesthetic terms, and in the form of a combination of functionality, performance and safety). The quality of products of the AvtoVAZ concern has increased and is now quite comparable with many foreign manufacturers. Moreover, in terms of quality and comfort, the latest models regulated by domestic manufacturers have significantly surpassed many foreign competitors. For this reason, many automotive experts consider the stated prices for the Lada XRAY configuration to be completely justified and reasonable.

Lada X Ray sold 34,807 units at the end of last year, showing a slight increase. To increase sales, the manufacturer decided last year to make the car cheaper. Therefore, the most expensive Exclusive package disappeared from the price lists, but a cheap Standard package appeared. “Standard” made it possible to reduce the base cost of the car by 40 thousand rubles. The expanded price range could attract new buyers to the 2019 model year.

Today, the manufacturer’s price list includes 11 trim levels, plus a couple of option packages, which we’ll talk about in more detail. On the technical side, practically nothing has changed. 1.6 and 1.8 liter petrol engines are available. As a transmission, the front-wheel drive car boasts a 5-speed manual transmission and an AMT robotic transmission. Interestingly, with a 106 hp engine. They install a domestic gearbox, with a more powerful 122 horsepower unit, they pair mechanics from Renault. At the end of last year, a new version of the Lada X Ray Cross was introduced to the market, which we will talk about in the next article. See below for the latest price list.

Lada Vesta (2015-present)

THIS MAY BE INTERESTING MORE FROM THE AUTHOR

Mercedes-Benz A-Class W1.

LADA (VAZ) Vesta I – B-class sedan, front-wheel drive. Mechanics and robot. Gasoline engines with power from 106 to 122 horsepower.

LADA Vesta (Russian: Lada Vesta) is a Russian compact small car that AvtoVAZ has been producing since September 25, 2015. Replaced the LADA Priora family in the model line.

Project development

The cost of developing the car was about 6.5 billion rubles. The first body of the pre-production Vesta was welded on November 5, 2014 in Izhevsk. On February 6, 2015, the first LADA Vesta body was welded and painted in Izhevsk using serial technology. On September 25, 2015, a solemn ceremony took place to launch mass production of the model.

It was assumed that the sedan would go on sale first on November 25, 2015, then the hatchback, but later the plan was changed, and mass production of the station wagon and its off-road version began in 2017.

The Vesta sedan is offered to Russian buyers in three main trim levels. At the end of November 2022, the price of the car starts from 554,900 rubles.

On August 29, 2016, the head of AvtoVAZ, Nicolas More, said that the company abandoned plans to produce a hatchback due to possible intra-brand competition with the XRAY model. On September 19, 2022, AvtoVAZ began accepting orders for Vesta SW and Vesta SW Cross station wagons.

Specifications

The length of the car exceeds the dimensions of the Priora and is 4.41 m (sedan and station wagon).

The car was created on the Lada B platform, a further processing of the unrealized Lada C project (2006). The design of the car is based on the LADA XRAY concept cars. It is reported that the car received a completely original front suspension with L-shaped arms and new steering knuckles and a 5-degree caster, and steering from Renault Megane. The steering column is adjustable for tilt and reach in all trim levels. Some components, such as the brakes and radiator, are borrowed from Renault-Nissan designs.

ENGINE

The car is equipped with a 1.6 liter VAZ engine (106 hp VAZ-21129) and a 1.8 liter engine (122 hp VAZ-21179). Two transmission options are offered for the car. This is a 5-speed manual transmission and an automated manual transmission (AMT) of Russian design (VAZ 21827). You can find out which gearbox is on the car by the VIN number of the car: if it has the code GFL13, then the gearbox is Renault, if GFL11, the VAZ “mechanics” VAZ 21807 is installed. Versions with a “robot” have the code GFL12.

In 2022, LADA Vesta is planned to be equipped with gas-cylinder equipment, which will allow the use of natural gas (methane) compressed to 250 atmospheres as fuel. This version is equally capable of running on both regular gasoline and NG, which significantly expands the capabilities of the car. A pilot batch of gas-powered West and Largus vehicles of about 300 vehicles has already been produced (November 2015) and is currently undergoing certification.

Does Lada XRAY need all-wheel drive?

Lada.Online

Lada (“Lada”) is a brand of cars produced by JSC AVTOVAZ. Previously, it was used only for export cars, and for the domestic market, cars were produced under the Zhiguli brand. In 2004, the management of AVTOVAZ announced the transition to the Latin alphabet for the official spelling of the names of all cars produced by the plant: Lada - instead of "VAZ" and "Lada".

Lada.Online is the largest Russian-language automotive resource with a daily audience of thousands, which is dedicated primarily to cars of this brand, the domestic automotive industry and the automotive world in general.

Exterior

Lada Vesta 2022 in a new body, what will it be like ? Details of the appearance have not yet been revealed. There aren't even any spy shots! Either the spies are not trying hard, or VAZ is good at keeping secrets, but the fact remains a fact.

Therefore, one can only speculate. The optics will definitely be different. After all, this is one of those elements that catches the eye perfectly. And at the same time, its development and implementation into production is inexpensive relative to the “bodywork”.

According to the latest fashion, the headlights will become LED. Of course, not “in the database”. The video review reports that tuning companies have been offering such modifications for a long time. The main changes to the exterior are the new front and rear ends. But they won’t touch everything in between – it’s too expensive. Therefore, the trunk will look different, but its volume will remain unchanged.

Interior

The salon still looks quite modern. And it will be even better. Of course, the VAZ team carries out modifications based, among other things, on feedback from owners, as well as the opinions of journalists. photo of the salon yet. Even camouflaged.

The main changes to the interior will be the appearance of a completely new front panel. This will please those who are considering the opportunity to buy a Lada Vesta 2021. The devices, it seems, will become virtual. But modest cars will still have regular, “physical” needles and dials.

Specifications

It is expected that the technical characteristics of the Lada Vesta 2022 will change significantly. This is due to the family moving to the Renault platform. There is logic, and it is one hundred percent. Why keep a separate “trolley” if the concern already has a suitable one at its disposal?

The new Lada Vesta 2022 model year is not the first VAZ car based on someone else. A similar scheme was tested on the XRAY hatchback - it has a lot in common with the Renault Sandero Stepway, including similar dimensions. Even the suspension system is the same, although the settings are, of course, different.

However, the wheelbase is unlikely to increase (the investment in rework would be too large) and the ground clearance will be approximately the same as it is now (17.8 cm). This is more than that of the “Europeans,” but visually it does not turn the car into a crossover.

Exterior features of an elite sedan

To develop the Lada Vesta Exclusive, the designers of the AvtoVAZ concern took the platforms of the base model as a basis. It follows that the body dimensions remained the same:

  • the length of the car is 4 m 41 cm;
  • machine width – 1 m 76 cm;
  • model height – 1 m 50 cm;
  • ground clearance is also high: 178 mm;
  • the wheelbase, which allows for comfortable seating of passengers, is determined by the parameters 2 m 63 cm;
  • The big advantage of the Lada Vesta exclusive is the custom-made 17-inch light alloy wheels, which are covered with low-profile tires;
  • the luggage compartment can accommodate approximately 480 liters of cargo.

  • the door handles of a luxury sedan are covered with chrome, a molding (decorative detail) with the same coating protrudes on the bottom of the doors;
  • a small spoiler modestly displays on the trunk lid, and under it the letters LAD A are striking;
  • by and large, almost the entire body is framed in small quantities with chrome inserts, a material that always gives wealth and prestige.
