LED Door Projector Light Kit

lainmike0710 · 03-14-2015, 01:07 AM

Is anyone familiar with or actually put these on their car??

They look interesting but I have honestly never even noticed a door light underneath before and am not in front of my car at the moment to check but Schmiedmann's states they fit ALL e82's and for the price, it really doesn't seem like such a terrible little improvement...

Dont do it man... they look pretty tacky.

If you want something like that, you can just get a cheapy on ebay/craigslist.

You can add them if you want, but if you want a door comfort light I wouldn't get one that's so ostentatious...

I've seen that junk in real life. Its horridly tacky.

I won these in a raffle today at MFest TX. My car doesn't have courtesy lights under the door and I think all 1ers don't. Just for kicks I installed them in the driver and passenger footwell. Uninstalled shortly after.

Here's an awesome drone shot. The adjacent parking garage was full also.

@lainmike0710 does your car have the courtesy lights under the door?
