LED door/window conversion made easy!
A lot of C5 owners have converted their door modules dull looking white lights out for a more ashtetically pleasing and brighter look of Blue (or Red) LED's.
SPDKILZ has a great write up on how to do this mod.
HERE Some though have had some trouble with it. Visit his sight for the parts and pieces you need - parts list is real short - LED's and resistors
If you need a walk-thru on exactly how to do this, and would like to "SEE" how to do it,
HERE IS A VIDEO THAT MAY HELP YOU OUT.... Easy Project too

Hope this helps... If you have an interest but are not up to it, let me know.. might can work something out.
GOOD LUCK!
