'puddle lights' on the mirror?
Hi all,
On the Evoque there are 'puddle lights' on the mirror and they project an image (like bellow)
I was wondering if this was possible to do on a D4? By making a template for the small light that is on the bottom of the mirror! has anyone got ideas on how to do it?
Thanks Mark

Try a search...somebody did a "how to" recently as he had fitted small projector lights to the underside of his door handles.....would imagine it would be a very similar process ?"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool,than to speak out and remove all doubt" ?.....what rubbish...

Thanks I have already looked at that and from how i understand it its only a light that's in it. What I would like is some way of making the template that's so small? If it was a normal shape that i wanted in the circle it wouldn't be a problem but what I was thinking is a disco shape or something on the lines of that

Yep he did! The problem with that is its all one unit! And with the D4 mirror lights, all you would need is the template! But what i'm going to do is contact the company to try and see if they could come up with anything! But in the mean time i was wondering if anyone on here has done it or could help me find a way of getting a template with made to try it!

Replace the lights with a laser. Burning the LR logo into the pavement has got to up the kudos stakes.2010 MX-5 2.0 Sport Tech PRHT
