Ignore the glue dribbles and the scratched paint, they will tidy up. i think its a really neat solution, i just cut a slot out the boot and stuck it in from behind.

Once painted up it would almost be invisible i reckon.

Another thing is that my numberplate is quite a bit off the actual boot as i didnt have any decent foam double sided tape so used strong velcro which held it off more. with tape it would be a lot closer and light better.

looks good!

will use F all current as well being LED's, prob about 100 mA vs 300-400mA for the std one.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, not all LEDs use 20mA. The brighter thay are the more current they take.

I'd have thought that a decent superbright would take 50 to 80mA.

Neat solution though Ian.
