Jp928,
Ok, I am with you now. I have the beige leather and get a reasonable reflection spread through the cabin, but still dim in the front as you say. The dark intertior would make this worse, I agree.
I will go back into the detail of the mod to see if it can be done safely. One of the immediate risks is the total load current on the Body Control Unit as you join three circuits of of 8 watts (1 x dome, and 2 x map) to demand a total load of 2 amps as opposed to a single dome light load of 0.7 amps. This is part of my hesitation in undertaking the mod. If the BCU is only designed for a dome light load, then tripling the load may be too much.
I guess we could design a relay and switch that bypasses the BCU, but then you lose the progressive dimming during switch off feature.
Alternatively, if you change your map lights and dome lights to LED arrays, you will reduce the power consumption considerably and then the mod to connect the dome and map lights all to the same BCU circuit may work.
I will try to investigate further and let you know.
Kind Regards,
Mark.
