Footwell lighting

There are a few threads on here about adding these lights to the footwells, but am I right in saying that I can connect directly into the ashtray light to get a feed for some red LED's? Then, if I want the lights to fade with the interior lights, I should take it from the ceiling light too? Or one or the other? My electrical skills are fairly minimal but I really like this mod :p

Would they both require resistors or would the feed from the ashtray not require it?

Can I take the feed locally where the ashtray light is? Rather than the end of the dash, as mentioned on the other thread.

No doubt the dash needs to come out :roll:

Just to be clear StevebeechTA, you installed 2 full sets of lights? One from the interior light, down form the pillar to the footwell that come on and fade out when you unlock/lock. Then another fed from the ashtray directly into the footwell.

Does that mean when you unlock the car, both sets come on? Then the ones linked to the interior light fade out and switch off, while the ones linked to the ashtray stay on. Is the footwell very bright when you get in then? As both sets are on?

Probably seems obvious but just being sure before I get my parts ordered :

Cheers for that link too Silverbadger :p Probably the easiest option 8)
