Footwell Lights
« on: November 13, 2012, 06:59:37 pm »
Hey guys,

this isnt really a problem or anything, more just a general wondering

every time i start my car, my footwell lights flash 4 times.

does anybody know why this is or is it just a case of 'stop being picky and forget about it'

Cheers  :drinking:

If you want to stop the flashing change back to bulbs, there is no settings to turn off in vcds to stop this.
Loads of extra's and retro fits.
