Ex AA van - luggage compartment lights

Postby Daveyb » Thu Aug 20, 2020 3:58 pm

Hi, I have just bought a 65 plate ex AA van. I need to know how or where to put a switch in to turn off the rear luggage compartment lights. I took it camping a couple of weeks ago and when I opened the rear doors at midnight it almost woke the whole camp site up!! Man those things are bright. (They individually have heat sinks on them because they generate that much!!). I have managed to find out how to turn them off individually but would really like to know if there's an easy way to turn them all off together as I still want to be able to use them,
just not every time I open the door!! Thanks in advance!

When I turned my mk8 into a camper I re wired them through a separate switch from the leisure battery I fitted I have separate leds the original ones that are left are for a backup in the part of the headlining I kept the front door step lights I just removed the bulbs .
