Maximum output current of these chips is 3.5A per channel, so it isn't a simple case of running wires to extra bulbs in the footwell.
I am now working on building a simple circuit to switch a transistor/relay combo to illuminate the footwells.

Wow, I didn't realize BMW make it so complicated on just the two light. I thought it is just going to be plug and play.
Please keep us posted!!! Good work! I hope you find a way to it retrofit ...
THANKS!
