How to install an additional courtesy light in the interior of Lada Granta, Kalina and Priora


I would like to share with you my experience of installing rear passenger lighting. Installed due to lack of light from the driver's lamp. I often had to use a flashlight to find a bag or packages left in the back seat. I’ll make a reservation that the lampshade from the Priora Luxury is not too bright, so I’ll be finalizing it later and will definitely share my experience. But for now about the installation itself.

You need to purchase: - a lamp frame (130 rubles as of January 2017) - a lamp for illuminating the rear passengers (400-450 rubles) - 3 meters of wire (a thick wire is unnecessary here, since the power consumption of both lamps does not exceed 1A) - 3 pin connector (I didn’t find a native one on sale, so I used a computer 4 Pin (I’ll specify which one later) - a 3 pin block for connecting to the lampshade. And since I replaced the front lampshade “standard” with a “luxury” one, I need two 3 pin connectors. I bought one in flame for 100 rubles (wow! for what?!) Then I looked in the bins and found a suitable 3 pin connector from the computer. This connector is connected to the motherboard and powers the “Power LED” on the case.

This block was under-equipped with a central contact, which is not surprising, because where it is used it is not needed. I took the missing block from a similar block, but 2 pin. Thus, I saved 100 rubles. But why did I write this? So you know where you can get the pads you need. If there are other options, write them in the comments, they will come in handy.

First, I cut off the connection block for the original lamp, because... I didn't find the answer to it.

in its place I soldered a 4 Pin computer connector, which is found in any computer power supply. I soldered the white side of the header (mother). It was more convenient for me.

Next, I soldered the wiring harness for both lamps. Unfortunately, I didn’t take a photo of it. But instead I offer his diagram.

Since the 3 Pin header is keyless, it can be connected on both sides. Be careful not to get confused!

I covered the wires with bitoplast.

Now the most important thing is to cut the roof. I didn’t measure the cutting location based on pictures on the Internet. I simply unscrewed the left passenger handle, released the left door seals at the top, removed the trim of the center and rear left pillars, pulled back the ceiling and looked at everything myself. Then I made a slot.

Then I tried on the location of the lamp frame and made a finishing cut.

Even at the moment of trying on the frame, I noticed that I did not have holes for its fastening! My Priorka 2007. Obviously, no one knew about this lamp then. Therefore, I armed myself with a screwdriver with a drill with a diameter of 2 mm, marked the holes and! VERY CAREFULLY, WITHOUT PRESSING HARD AND WITHOUT DRILLING TO THE END! I made two under-drilled holes in the marked places. I underdrilled just a little bit so that the drill wouldn’t go too far ahead and crush my roof.

As it turned out after assembly, the lampshade shines not on the seats, but under the feet, which means that I placed the frame on the wrong side. So I had to drill a couple more holes. After which everything fell into place. And of course, I trimmed the ceiling a little more, since the width of the frame allows it. Between the ceiling and the roof, I glued accent pieces around the perimeter of the cut so that the frame would press tightly against the ceiling.

Then I used a wire to measure the maximum length of the screws so that when assembling they would not go through the roof. I won’t indicate the length, it’s better to try it on yourself, it’s a serious matter, no one wants to drive with a hole in the roof))

OK it's all over Now! I just want to point out that the diodes are not very bright, although the brightness is enough to see the bag, but not enough to see a smaller object. Plus, I came across a defective lamp, it has one yellow diode, and the second, as it should be, is white. Therefore, in the near future I will begin to eliminate this minor misunderstanding with color and brightness. However, I like the yellow glow better, maybe I’ll convert both lampshades to yellow diodes.

Interior light is very important when driving in the evening or at night. Bright lamps help the driver to easily see everything inside and minimize distractions when changing gears or changing the handbrake position.

The domestic Priora interior lighting, which differs for different trim levels, does not always satisfy owners with the quality of the lamps' glow. That is why many AvtoVAZ fans will be interested to learn about these differences and the features of replacing burnt out lamps or installing a new ceiling.

In its simplest configuration, the Lada Priora includes a single lighting unit located on the roof above the front panel. Conventional lamps marked C10W are installed in it. True, in most cases they give a soft but weak yellowish light.

In the most expensive configuration of the Priora, two units are installed. The first is located as standard near the driver, and the second is located in the ceiling above the rear row seats. This equipment allows not only the driver, but also passengers to feel truly comfortable in the car when driving or boarding in the evening.

The Priora's LED interior lighting for rear-row passengers is in no way inferior in quality to the lighting elements installed in the front part of the cabin.

How to install new lampshades in Priora?

High-quality replacement of a Priora interior lighting lamp is quite simple and does not require special skills from the owner. In particular, the diffuser is attached to the base only with a pair of clips, which are quite easily pressed out with a flat screwdriver.

To carry out the work, you will need to pry the scattering cover near the mount and lightly press the clip. Next, the cover easily comes out of the gaps, and the suitable power cord is easily removed from the socket. Afterwards, the old lamp is unscrewed and a new one is installed; the lampshade is assembled in the reverse order.

Full installation of the lamp in the rear will take much more time and greater care. Since the installation is carried out in the ceiling of the car, you should carefully carry out each stage.

But first of all, the driver needs to buy a Priora Lux interior lamp for the rear row. You can purchase the product at any car dealership. The installation procedure is as follows:

1. Markings are made on the ceiling of the cabin in the place where the ceiling lamp will be installed.

2. The covering is cut out according to the outlined measurements.

3. A wire is pulled from the front lamp (under the covering, of course).

4. The rear seat illuminator is connected.

5. If necessary, a thin frame is cut out of rubber or other sealant to ensure a tight fit of the lampshade to the ceiling.

The high-quality and bright lighting of the Priora Lux allows you to conveniently equip the Norma configuration model. The cost of the components is minimal, and the benefits obtained are quite high.

Considering the short installation time, ease of replacement and installation of the rear lamp, even a beginner can do the job. And the result obtained will be positively assessed by both the driver himself and the passengers being transported.

Interior lighting plays an important role in the dark: it creates comfortable conditions for the driver, makes it possible to better see the instruments, gear shift knob, etc. The interior lighting of the Priora does not always satisfy car enthusiasts. The article discusses types of lighting and provides instructions on how to install lampshades.

A combination of aesthetics and functionality

The interior lighting of a VAZ as its tuning, done by hand, is usually designed by the developer to solve several problems at the same time.

The first of these tasks in relation to the VAZ-2110 is the creation of an appropriate image, which is achieved by using additional sources of varying brightness and color.

As for the functional role played by car interior lighting, its practical achievement is much more difficult. For the VAZ-2110, the presence of additional light sources means that in the dark, very comfortable conditions are provided not only for the driver, but also for passengers. Let's name just a few of them:

  • tuning in the form of lighting helps to quickly find various objects, including small ones, both in the handbag and glove box, and on the seats;
  • the so-called polite interior lighting makes getting into the VAZ-2110 much more comfortable, by delaying the turning off of the light after closing the door, and gradually reducing the brightness of the standard light bulb;
  • illumination of the lower part of the VAZ-2110 interior allows you to quickly detect objects that have fallen to the floor near the feet;
  • Illuminated door handles make it easier for passengers to get in and out.

The list of advantages can be continued if desired.

Features of interior lighting on VAZ cars

In the simplest configuration of the Lada Priora, there is only one interior lighting fixture. It is located on the ceiling at the front. They are equipped with C10W bulbs, which emit a soft but faint yellow light. Priora owners are not satisfied with such light, so they install an improved unit from the “Lux” version model.

Two lighting fixtures are fully equipped in Priora and Kalina. One is located near the driver. The second is located in the ceiling above the rear seats. Although an LED lamp is used, it shines no worse than light sources installed near the driver.


Additional cabin lighting

Refinement of doors

To add brightness and uniqueness to the Lada Priora, some fans cover the doors, and specifically the handles, with Diamond Chip vinyl film. This material is durable and shiny, which is especially noticeable in the sun.

To cover interior elements with diamond chips, you need to outline and cut out the required piece of material. Glue it using Moment glue. Carefully smooth it out with your fingers, working through each protrusion.

As a result, the appearance of the tuned interior will change under the influence of sunlight. On a cloudy day, diamond chips look like an ordinary matte surface, but on sunny days they will shimmer with light and light up with a million lights.

Instructions for installing new lampshades

To replace lighting fixtures in both the Priora and Kalina interiors, no special knowledge is required, since the procedure is simple.

Photo gallery “Step-by-step installation of lighting shades”

To replace the light bulb, follow these steps:

  1. First you need to remove the protective cover. This can be done by prying it with a screwdriver from the mounting side and lightly pressing the clip. Now the cover can be easily removed from the ceiling.
  2. Next you need to disconnect the power wires.
  3. Having disconnected the old lamp, a new element is installed in its place.
  4. Assembly is carried out in reverse order.

Installing an additional “Lux” lighting fixture will require care and time. First of all, you need to purchase a new block, which will be placed above the rear sofa.


Lighting connection diagram

The installation procedure consists of the following steps:

  1. First, you need to apply markings to the ceiling, deciding on the place where the rear lamp will be located.
  2. Then, according to the markings, a hole is cut in the ceiling covering.
  3. Next, you need to stretch the power wire from the front light between the roof and the ceiling covering.
  4. At the next stage, the unit to be installed is connected.
  5. To ensure that the lid fits tightly to the ceiling, you can cut a frame from some kind of rubber seal.

In the Priora “Norma” configuration, it is recommended to change the front unit installed from the factory. Replacing it is easy, since the characteristics of the devices are the same.

The replacement scheme is similar to replacing a light bulb: a new element will be installed instead of the old light source. When installing LEDs, keep in mind that they differ in brightness color. For the rear light, it is better to make the LED backlight brighter, and put medium-brightness LEDs in front (the author of the video is Repair and Tuning).

After replacing the lighting unit of the Priora Norma configuration with a higher-quality luxury one, the driver becomes more comfortable in the cabin.

Simplicity of installation and low time costs make it possible to replace the standard lighting unit with a more powerful one, or equip the cabin with an additional light source. At the same time, you do not need to have in-depth knowledge of electrical engineering; even a novice driver can perform the replacement.

Price issue

The block (diode) costs 460 rubles. The front Lux package costs 535 rubles.

There are two options to improve lighting by replacing it with LED:

  1. Replacing a conventional lamp with an LED one. Price 50 rub.
  2. Replacing a lighting lamp with an LED module - 350 rubles.

To replace the unit you do not need to remove it, just remove the glass.

Ceiling reupholstery

The ceiling is one of the weak points in a Priora car. It is easy to damage, scratch, burn and smudge. As a result, when tuning the interior of a Priora hatchback with your own hands, you must redo the ceiling.

The simplest way is to cover it with artificial suede - a self-adhesive velvet non-woven film. Tuning includes several stages:

We disassemble the interior, remove all rubber bands, seals and interior elements. To remove the ceiling, it is necessary to dismantle all racks, clips, passenger handles, visors, and other fasteners. It is necessary to disconnect the power supply to the backlights. We pull out the ceiling that is sagging

We need to be careful, so we lower all the chairs. We paste the plastic ceiling using self-adhesive tape. We install the ceiling in place.

Thus, our efforts in tuning the car will not be in vain. We will update the interior and give the car its own character.

Replacing lighting bulbs in Lada Priora

Replacing and connecting new lamps in the interior of the Lada Priora does not require any special skills.

The diffuser in the cabin should be secured to the base with several clips, which, if necessary, can be easily bent using a flat screwdriver. In order to perform this work, you will need to pry up the diffuser and press on the clip. Then the cover can be easily opened, and the wiring that needs to be removed is easily accessible. After this, you can replace the lamp and assemble the lampshade. Assembly is carried out in reverse order.

Installing the light in the rear will require a little more time and care. Since the installation of the lamp will be carried out in the ceiling of the car, each stage must be performed separately.

Initially, when planning this work, you need to purchase a lampshade. It can be found in any auto store in the city, and the installation procedure is quite simple:

  1. Markings are made on the ceiling of the cabin, in the place where the connector is located and the ceiling lamp will be mounted.
  2. The interior covering is carefully cut along the marked lines.
  3. Wiring runs from the front courtesy light under the car cover.
  4. The rear light is connected.

On the Lada Priora “Norma”, automotive experts also recommend changing the front lamps. These works are performed absolutely identically to those given above. When replacing, you should remember that the LEDs will differ from each other. It is recommended to install medium-brightness bulbs in the front part of the cabin, and high-brightness ones in the rear.

How to change a chandelier

In order to remove a chandelier from the ceiling surface, you will need to perform the following work, following a step-by-step algorithm:

  1. The first step is to prepare all the necessary tools that may be needed during the dismantling process, as well as all consumables - a regular screwdriver, an indicator screwdriver, a stepladder or chair, electrical tape, terminals, connecting blocks.
  2. After this, it is necessary to turn off the electrical energy in the entire room. If you turn off the power in only one room, this will not guarantee that if the phases are connected incorrectly, the switch will withstand the voltage. Flip the switch and once again make sure there is no voltage.
  3. Release the main body of the ceiling lighting fixture, and then remove all existing decorative elements, such as a lampshade and light bulbs.
  4. After this, you should carefully remove the decorative box, which allows you to hide the electrical wires from prying eyes.

The following actions vary depending on the type of fixation used (hook, anchor, bracket):

  1. If you need to remove a model of a lighting fixture that is attached to the ceiling surface using a hook or anchor, then you need to disconnect the wires, put them aside, and remove the lighting fixture from the fastening element.
  2. If strips were used during the installation process, you will need to first loosen the bolts, carefully loosen the device and remove the device.

It is recommended to immediately insulate disconnected wires, as there is a high probability that exposed wires will short-circuit and cause electric shock.

Attention! It is necessary to unscrew the lampshade on the chandelier before removing the lighting fixture, which will greatly facilitate dismantling

Video “Installing the tail light”

This video demonstrates how to install a rear light in the interior of a Lada Kalina with your own hands (the author of the video is NBI12345).

The popular Russian car Lada Priora is available in 4 body types: sedan (VAZ-2170), station wagon (VAZ-2171), hatchback (VAZ-2172), coupe (VAZ-2173) and in several trim levels, which undoubtedly makes this car convenient for different people. Lada Priora replaced the popular and beloved Lada of the 10th family and was created for our Russian roads and our harsh climate. Safety, efficiency, ease of maintenance, suitability for our fuel - the designers took care of all this.

Lada Priora is equipped with 8-valve (81 hp) and 16-valve (98 hp) engines, with a declared service life of 200,000 km. The new engines have a lightweight connecting rod and piston group, which increases engine power by 10%. A number of trim levels are equipped with tuning options as standard: air conditioning with climate control, light and rain sensor, parking sensors, heated front seats, electric windows on all doors, electric and heated mirrors.

Additional interior lighting for Priora

Installation of the central lamp in Lada Priora

When the frame and lampshade are found, we proceed to install it. To do this, feel for the edge behind the ceiling upholstery and make a small hole. We stretch the wiring and then fix the lamp frame to the ceiling. If you cannot find holes for installing the lampshade, then it is better to remove the ceiling upholstery.

Another example is when a lampshade from Chevrolet Lanos was chosen as a light source. It is attached to the ceiling upholstery itself (screwed). For this, a couple of metal plates with holes drilled in them were useful.

Additional interior lighting of the Priora in the rear pillar trims

Then unclip the clips and remove the plastic covers on the back of the struts. Cut holes in them for the lampshades, and install them.

Connecting additional interior lighting of the VAZ 2170

It is important that when you lay wires under the headliner, be sure to wrap it in modelin (anti-creaking) to prevent the appearance of new crickets in the cabin.

By the way, upgrading the interior lighting is not limited to the above methods; try installing the lighting in the ceiling handles, as in Grant. And yet, installing a standard Priora lamp in the center of the ceiling will eliminate the problem of sagging upholstery.

Possible malfunctions - if the lamp still does not light up

The burnout of the Priora interior lighting bulb, unfortunately, is not the only malfunction. It happens that even though the lamp is working, the lamp does not light up or does not behave as it should. The main reasons for this problem are as follows:

The fuse has blown . We open the interior mounting block - it is located under the dashboard to the left of the driver and is closed with a decorative cover with rotary latches.


Lada Priora mounting block and numbering of fuses in it

Fuse F10 with a rating of 7.5 A (Normal) or 10 A (Lux) is responsible for interior lighting in “Norma” and “Lux”.

Expert opinion

Alexey Bartosh

Specialist in repair and maintenance of electrical equipment and industrial electronics.

Healthy! The same fuse also powers the brake light bulbs. If they are lit, then the fuse is definitely good, and you don’t have to go into the mounting block.

The switch built into the lamp has oxidized . We remove the glass (see previous section), turn it over, and clean the contacts. As an option, we buy a new switch, but here we will have to unsolder the rivets (the switch is designed to be permanent).

The limit switch in the door pillar is faulty . We remove the limit switch, unscrew one self-tapping screw, and use a multimeter set to resistance measurement mode. We replace the faulty limit switch with a new one.

Break or short circuit to the body of the supply wire . In the second case, the fuse constantly blows. We inspect the wiring, look for damage, and fix it. If the problem cannot be found, disconnect the damaged conductor and replace it with a new one using a special automotive wire.

Installing floor (leg) lighting in Priora

Installing footlights in Lada Priora

Floor lighting for the driver and front passenger: the LED strip can be secured using either double-sided tape or plastic ties directly above the pedals. We place the second tape under the glove compartment:

Lighting for rear passengers: We will place the LED strip under the front seats. The most convenient way to secure the backlight is to use a corner from the cable channel, to which we glue the prepared tape. We attach the corner itself to the air ducts with self-tapping screws. It is not at all necessary to remove the seats for this; it is enough to move them as far forward as possible.

Connecting the interior lighting of the VAZ 2170

By the way, do you want to make the Priora’s interior more diverse? Use an RGB controller for the LED strip; it will allow you to change the color of the interior lighting:

To illuminate not only the passengers' feet, it is recommended to install an additional lighting lamp on the ceiling.

Selection of material

The most popular solution is the use of glass shades. This design is transparent, allowing free passage of light. They are easy to care for and, at the same time, varied in style and color.

But glass is a fragile material and can easily break under mechanical stress. Therefore, such models are not recommended for installation in children's rooms.

An alternative to glass when searching for the best shades for modern chandeliers can be plastic products. Of course, they are not as expensive and look less presentable, but the visual similarity and variety of design skills will allow you to choose a design that is perfect for an apartment decorated in a high-tech style.

Fabric modifications will help create a cozy and homely, calm atmosphere in the apartment. They look original and will fit perfectly into the bedroom interior. However, the lampshade will be demanding to maintain - the fabric is prone to absorbing dust and odors. Over time you will have to change it.

For lovers of ethnic and oriental notes in design, there are paper products that are distinguished by their aesthetics and originality. True, they cannot boast of durability.

Connection

All the necessary contacts for connecting an additional lamp are in the front lamp. To install the wires, it is not at all necessary to remove the roof trim; just bend it slightly from the edge or move it slightly out of the door seal.

  • from Sable or GAZelle (CA 453.0031);
  • lamp from a foreign car (for example, with this number: 3b0947291);
  • any other of your choice.


You will also need several meters of wires.

===================================================== ===================================== Experience in installing a rear light for rear passengers when replacing the ceiling, I had the idea to order luxury ceiling and put a lamp in the back. but after looking at the cost of the lampshade, something in the region of 500 rubles and the lack of a frame, I somehow didn’t want it anymore. And then, with the onset of winter, it got dark outside and it became impossible to see what was where in the car. and I thought about installing something from the rear. From the beginning I thought about gluing the tapes. but then I looked at what the tapes were going for these days and changed my mind: 300 rubles for 60 cm; I used to charge 150 rubles. and then, quite by chance, I decided to look to see if the rear frames had appeared under the standard lampshade. And I saw that they were there and at what price! 21700371401400 Rear interior light frame 2170 RUR 32.12 I ordered it immediately, waited 5 days and picked it up. and started thinking about luxury lampshades, then I looked at the pictures that there are few diodes there, they are expensive and the brightness is not very good. + the connectors do not fit the lampshades as is normal. I put the idea aside altogether. I was looking for a lampshade that is called cheaper. I bought a used one as normal for 100 rubles ============================================ ============================== total interim budget 260r))) then I bought a 2nd connector for the 2nd lamp on the market and 6 tips for wires for crimping total 65r Well, the only thing left is installation. I googled a photo of a luxury ceiling on a Hatch in Paint and drew approximate lines where it is located. Then I bought a stationery knife, 2 pieces, and with a knife I marked approximately the middle between the handles along the stamping line, 88 cm. middle 44cm. Then I cut through a small window to look at the stiffener and how to attach the frame. The frame is attached to a stiffening bar; 2 protrusions are inserted into the groove in the middle and screwed into the standard holes with 2 screws. I marked the middle of the gutter on the ceiling, attached a stencil and cut out a window. I got lucky, the village was perfect, just like a factory. Then I ran the wires to the 1st lampshade, crimped the standard tips and put them in the standard connectors, in general, a factory without a collective farm. The only thing is that the front lamp does not fit into the rear lamp without modifications. You need to remove about 5mm in height. Well, accordingly, the lamp stands very close to the reflector. ===================================================== ===================================== To complete the mincemeat, we ordered PL5 LED boards for 12V energomash. In a place with delivery of 1040r, installation is not difficult; just screw on a couple of bolts that are included in the kit. I was very pleased with the result, very bright as day.

Finally my long-awaited parcel from Togliatti arrived.

There is no particular point in describing the installation process. The frame is attached to the stiffener on the roof. There are already technological holes there. All you have to do is cut a hole of the required size in the roof sheathing. I ran 3 wires from the front lamp (I just paralleled them). The rear lamp was specially chosen not to be a luxury one, but the one with an ordinary light bulb. I have the same one in front. For what? Everything is simple - throw out the light bulb and insert a powerful 12-volt LED in its place. With a luxury lamp, everything is more complicated, because the LEDs are already soldered into the board and you can’t replace anything there without a soldering iron.

These LEDs are installed in both the front lamp and the rear

To say that the interior has become brighter is an understatement.

Interior lighting plays an important role in the dark: it creates comfortable conditions for the driver, makes it possible to better see the instruments, gear shift knob, etc. The interior lighting of the Priora does not always satisfy car enthusiasts. The article discusses types of lighting and provides instructions on how to install lampshades.

Features of interior lighting on VAZ cars

In the simplest configuration of the Lada Priora, there is only one interior lighting fixture. It is located on the ceiling at the front. They are equipped with C10W bulbs, which emit a soft but faint yellow light. Priora owners are not satisfied with such light, so they install an improved unit from the “Lux” version model.

Two lighting fixtures are fully equipped in Priora and Kalina. One is located near the driver. The second is located in the ceiling above the rear seats. Although an LED lamp is used, it shines no worse than light sources installed near the driver.

Instructions for installing new lampshades

To replace lighting fixtures in both the Priora and Kalina interiors, no special knowledge is required, since the procedure is simple.

Photo gallery “Step-by-step installation of lighting shades”

To replace the light bulb, follow these steps:

  1. First you need to remove the protective cover. This can be done by prying it with a screwdriver from the mounting side and lightly pressing the clip. Now the cover can be easily removed from the ceiling.
  2. Next you need to disconnect the power wires.
  3. Having disconnected the old lamp, a new element is installed in its place.
  4. Assembly is carried out in reverse order.

Installing an additional “Lux” lighting fixture will require care and time. First of all, you need to purchase a new block, which will be placed above the rear sofa.

The installation procedure consists of the following steps:

  1. First, you need to apply markings to the ceiling, deciding on the place where the rear lamp will be located.
  2. Then, according to the markings, a hole is cut in the ceiling covering.
  3. Next, you need to stretch the power wire from the front light between the roof and the ceiling covering.
  4. At the next stage, the unit to be installed is connected.
  5. To ensure that the lid fits tightly to the ceiling, you can cut a frame from some kind of rubber seal.

In the Priora “Norma” configuration, it is recommended to change the front unit installed from the factory. Replacing it is easy, since the characteristics of the devices are the same.

The replacement scheme is similar to replacing a light bulb: a new element will be installed instead of the old light source. When installing LEDs, keep in mind that they differ in brightness color. For the rear light, it is better to make the LED backlight brighter, and put medium-brightness LEDs in front (the author of the video is Repair and Tuning).

After replacing the lighting unit of the Priora Norma configuration with a higher-quality luxury one, the driver becomes more comfortable in the cabin.

Simplicity of installation and low time costs make it possible to replace the standard lighting unit with a more powerful one, or equip the cabin with an additional light source. At the same time, you do not need to have in-depth knowledge of electrical engineering; even a novice driver can perform the replacement.

Price issue

The block (diode) costs 460 rubles. The front Lux package costs 535 rubles.

There are two options to improve lighting by replacing it with LED:

  1. Replacing a conventional lamp with an LED one. Price 50 rub.
  2. Replacing a lighting lamp with an LED module - 350 rubles.

To replace the unit you do not need to remove it, just remove the glass.

Installation of LED strip

Before installing footwell lights in a car with your own hands, you should decide where you will attach the tape itself.

To illuminate the footwell area, it can be installed below the seats, along the perimeter of the lower part of the front seats, under the instrument panel and under the glove compartment. It all depends on your imagination. Remember, when choosing a place for installation, you should take into account that the installed lighting should be directed towards the floor.

After choosing a location, measure and cut a piece of tape of the required size. Do not forget that it may not be cut in all places. Cut only in areas where solder contacts are located. Therefore, having measured what length you need, it is better to take a little less than vice versa, so that later there is no sagging during fastening.

After cutting, solder a wire to the edges of the tape and try to connect it to a power source. If it works, isolate the solder joints. To do this, put a heat-shrinkable tube over the joint, heat it with a soldering iron or even with a lighter. After insulation, attach the tape to the selected location using an adhesive layer, glue, or even regular silicone ties.

In the same way, you make and install the lighting strip in other places in the cabin.

  • The exterior lighting in the car is completely turned off.
  • To release the lantern from its location, you must use a tool. For this purpose, you can use a simple screwdriver. She needs to remove the flashlight from the interior trim.
  • The lamp is removed by pressing on the connecting elements. It occurs by analogy with the previous description of removing lamps from the socket.
  • To turn on a new lamp, it is necessary to install it. It is pressed into the cartridge mount until it stops.
  • To install the flashlight in its original place, you need to insert one end of the lampshade into the connector of the casing, and apply slight pressure on the other. A slight click will indicate that the light is fully connected to the connector in the luggage compartment.
