Hi, my 1st post on this forum.
I have. 2011 diesel C3 but the led running lights came out the year after. I'd like to buy and fit some but looking under the bonnet at the electrics and fusebox in the car, I'm not sure where to start. They have to be fitted so they come on with the ignition. I've tinkered with car electrics all my life as a hobby, but that was the older models.
Anybody point me in the right direction please.
Too expensive at the garage to fit so I'll do it myself if I've a little help.
Thanks folks.

Hi

Sometimes the plugs are already present behind where the lights go. Worth a look as it would save a fair bit of work.

Then the next thing would be to enable the option in lexia tool

Thanks Guru. I'll take a look to see if the fitting is there already installed. I'm sure if I fitted them my local garage would sort out the compatability on their ecu checker.
Ciao!
