Being as we’re all in lockdown I’ve taken my P38 off the road for a few weeks to make some basic improvements and repairs..... and I think it’s looking all the better for it.
One thing I’ve done is fitted some footwell lamps that my car never had fitted. No loom in the car for them and I didn’t get one from the breaker either. All I’ve done is “piggy backed” the two lights by soldering the wires together and then connecting them to the bulb holder on the courtesy light in the roof lining.
Now when I press the button to turn the courtesy light on I can hear the BECOM “click” under the drivers seat.
Do you think this is going to do any long term damage? Does anyone have a better suggestion to get power to the lights without the correct loom?
keep healthy all.
