Footwell LED lights
Does anyone have any footwell LED lights installed into their car?
I would like to put some in my car but dont have a clue of what to buy.
Do I just buy a Footwell LED lights and a 3 way switch so that I can turn it manually off and on, and also normal for when the interior lights come on and off?
I looked on ebay
Is something like these lights correct?

Would i need to buy any relay or scotch locks from what I have been reading from searching on here and google?
And then is it a matter of wiring it with the interior lights?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Sorry for the amateur question.

Just buy two cree LED's or better still an SMD type light and take a 12v source from the fuse box under the steering wheel and a wire to the interior door switch. I don't know when you want the lights to be on or off though.
I have SMD's in my interior light and they are very bright and have a good shine path, would be ideal to light up the whole footwell.

I thought of connecting LED strips to the interior lights so that they come on when i open the door but still be able to manually switch off or on with a 3 way switch.
But thanks for the advice!
I tried searching for it on our forum but am worse than amateur. So I didn't understand what i would need to buy just to get the ball rolling.

ive had footwell lights put in my S. i just had a strip of them (with covers) and if i ever get bored of the colour then i change the colour of the covers and im good to go.
i had them hooked into the door switches and the interior light, they only come on when the doors are open or the main interior light is turned on.
i can get better picture if you want.

I was wanting them for night time because it is sometimes hard to find the door handle but I must admit that part of the reason is for looks also.
I have noticed that many people have bought a strip of LED lights and just connected them to the interior lights. But I was wanting to wire a switch so that I could turn them off or have them on constantly whenever I want.
Was the link from ebay that I posted, correct? As in getting them would be correct and a matter of wiring them up to the interior lights?
