Can you get one that projects a steaming pile of turd?
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Definitely no cheeses lights under the car. It looks better than I expected, but it will come down to personal taste really.

With regards to installation, it's pretty straight forward really. I bought the two sets of lights off ebay and went for the 'white' light for the fronts and red for the back.

Now, the red version come with the light already mounted on a dummy light unit, so it's a simple swap out at the back. The white light version however, just come as the projector light unit only.

With this, you have a couple of options. You could either drill a new hole under the front door car and piggy back the power from the puddle light, or the route I took, I mounted the unit on a modify existing puddle light fitting.

I did this by simply drilling a hole in the centre (carefully) and mount the laser light using hot glue. 10mins worth of work.

Note: the. Current gen lights seems a lot shorter that before, however they are still slightly too long for the puddle light chamber under the door card.

Installation:

1. Remove the puddle light under the door and disconnect the wires.
2. Mark the centre of the chamber (I actually just guesstimated Smile ) and drill up using the supplied core drill. The will only go through one layer and will not come through the door pocket.
3. Push the two wires on the laser unit into the connector. It's a really tight push and it should not come lose.
4. Push fit the pre-prepared mount and laser.

Total time, about half an hour.

The laser unit.

Rinse and repeat...
