Hi everyone!
It's been 8+ years on the X5, 128,000 miles, + 5 years on this forum!!! (I lurked for a bit lol), and everything is still working great. A regular oil change every 5000 miles has this car plowing down roads with no sweat. I do think I might change the transmission fluid just as a preventative measure, but so far, it's still acting normal. I will be tackling that and fuel filter that I've had for the past year, but never changed.
This is a update of my other thread from two years ago.
So, I thought I should add some more ambient lights. So I bought 10 LEDs from ebay for $8 and some wires, and I started ripping out the door panels.
The lights under the door wood trim were done before, but I extended the wire so the front doors were in a better position. The front wires for the OEM LEDs are very short. Now I have added lights for the door handle pulls and the door pocket for each door. These were tapped from the existing LED wiring. I also added lighting for the passenger side dash trim with power tapped from the radio, but not so sure I like it there. Am I going overboard with the lighting?
