Painted, cleared, wet sand, polish and electrical. It all works! Daisy chained the from the right side and wrapped to protect against weather and exhaust heat.
Oh, almost forgot the Phillips 6000k LED's

Could you possibly post a pic of a "night view" with the reverse lights on of how much they are illuminating?

I would have to take one, but they are very bright, but low so they don't blind people

I've tried out two or three different led bulbs so far I like the color, only the latest ones have seemed to work very well. They just aren't bright enough for my liking, yet. I may have to pick some of these up and try them out.

Thank you, it does let people know you reversing for safety, and to me makes the car more modern and symmetrical.
I also have the LED license plate lights

Does yours happen to have a problem with a quick diagnostic strobe/blink when you start the car and random blinks throughout your driving. I did the same mod but found the correct light fixture. Super bright but when I start the car it strobes like 6-7 times. No cel though.

Yea, that's the bulbs check which is normal for all LED conversions for MINIs. I call it the "cop lights" on start up.
