Interior light delay with auto dimming...

[George Graves]

Thought some of you guys might find this cool. It's a little mod I made - it's also plug and play for e30's.

Enjoy:

Sorry - it sold on ebay. PM me if you want to know more.

Do you still have some of these available?

[George Graves]

I just sold my last one on ebay. I might make up a few more if anyone is interested.

How much will they be?

[George Graves]

Last one sold on ebay for $43. But I've been selling them elsewhere for less - usually $34.60 shipped in a GB.

Does it work for both the passenger and driver's side?

The unit I made is "plug and play" to replace the stock relay. And because of the way BMW wired our cars the delay is only triggered by the drivers side door.

You can re-wire it to trigger the delay by both doors (not hard to do) - or just live with the fact two people never both get into the car by the passenger side door? Don't know about you, but when I got for a drive - I get in on the drivers side.

Otherwise, all you need is a screwdriver and an 8mm socket - it just plugs right in. Not sure if I'll make more - depend on demand.

when are you going to be able to make more?

[George Graves]

Hard to say, if I had a few people here interested I would be inclined to order up parts for another batch.
