    This should defiantly be doable. i have run an extra cig lighter in the boot going from the fuse box. wires all hidden under trim. And wireless charging under the handbrake. Not sure where you would mount them in the rear . maybe to the centre pillar or under seats

    Maybe something like this would be better

    Was thinking the back of the center console  so the kids can charge tablets/phone etc, just cut a slot out and fit.

    like the link you sent might go for that one instead.

    It's bizzare, the parameters seem to be if you try and use it for more than a few seconds i.E surfing playlists.

     

    I think looking at a few pictures of peoples builds that i may upgrade to LED lights inside and out as well.  Guessing that ill need to code these though.

    Ah, the touching screen whilst driving warning lol its timed i believe on android so you're not concentrating on your playlist think scrolling 4 or more times within a certain amount of time brings the warning up. 

  5. Air con temp actuator, test by adjusting temp from low to high, leave on low for a few seconds then up to high for a few and back down to low and the clicking will appear, next would be to identify which side the faulty motor is on, instead of dual climate select independent climate control, raise and lower driver side  temp, than passenger side.

  6. Forgot to let ye know I sorted the clicking sound, was indeed a flap controller, the housing had opened up somehow causing the cog to move out of position, it's a tedious job but all I had to do was remove the glove box and surround, take away the small heat shield its midway at the very back behind the centre part of the console  and as marked in the picture ,I was trying to replace with a motor I got off of Ebay but the original had 13 teeth and the new one had 15, so super glued the original and taped it up to be sure connected to the power and set the temp to 23(about mid way) so the cog could be centred with the flap, have had no problems since so all good.

     

     

    You can see where the housing split (red arrow)

    lay on your back have your head where the bottom arrow is, have someone changing the temp so you can see the cog moving,its situtaed behind the right side of the pollen filter housing.

    That is the issue - DRL's legally have to dim at night. Your car, from the factory, would have had DRL's that would have dimmed to approx. 20% as soon as you switched side-light on, or the auto lights switched themselves to side or main.

    Is there a way of dimming them at night? Yes - get your car back to how the lights were when they left the factory.

     so i have to remove the out of phase with indicator mod?

    will give it a go tonight.

    cheers

    If the DRL's are not dimming with the Sidelights, sidelights and dipped beam or sidelights and full beam on then find out why!

    Has the car already had 'coding changes' or modifications to the lights?

     

    The Title says 'DRL brightness in auto mode',   so what about when 'manually the Sidelights and Dipped headlights' are switched on? Are the DRL's still too bright?

    Dazzling or annoying other drivers!

     

    ?

    Has the car been checked for the Headlight Alignment since it left the factory? Or is the car as it went into the Dealership, had a PDI and will not be checked until it gets a MOT?

    Has the suspension been changed?

    NCT (Irish version of the MOT)passed with 0 problems the only thing coded for the DRLs are the out of phase with indicators nothing else.

     

    This is only at night of course which is what I meant by on Auto, just wondering if theres a way of dimming them at night.

  9. Hi Folks

     

    Was out taking my brother for a spin and got a few flashes at night with on coming traffic,

    I have standard xenons but my brother thinks it may be the DRL's are too bright and blinding on coming traffic when we got out of the car to look the DRL's are very bright.

    Has anyone got the obdeleven coding to dim the drl's a bit?

     

    Cheers
