BMW LED projector welcome lights
I saw these on ebay. It looks pretty cool to have an image projected on the floor. They have it in the M logos too. http://www.ebay.com/itm/LED-Welcome-...314d51&vxp=mtr That's the link. I might make this a weekend project. |

So I actually ordered these for my bike. Gonna see if they're any decent. I figure if they don't work, I'll just rig them up in my garage somewhere as ambiance. Haha

I too would be reluctant to drill a hole under the door. BUT, if someone rigged these up as a plug-n-play replacement for the under-door welcome lights I bet they'd sell like hotcakes!

Cool, albeit perhaps a bit chintzy...

Agreed on both counts. I figured for $20 I'd take a chance on the Harley ones since an install on the bike is much more non-destructive than the car. I'll snap some pics when they show up. If they're as bright as the ad claims, maybe it's worth someone's time to try these on a car.
I'll also see if there's an easy to fit these into an existing light housing. Do the F10's have puddle lights under the side mirrors? I never even bothered to look. |

They don't. Puddle lights only under the doors. If I was a bigger batman fan, I would get this. It is pretty neat if this $20 mini-projector can make an image that bright and clear |

They look very bright. I'm about to do this when it gets warmer. I'm going to try and not having to remove the door for this. I'll probably end up doing the BMW logo instead of the transformers. Take pics when you get it mounted, vdub! |

If only you didn't have to remove the door panel... and if it came in red & black = AWESOMENESS.

I've just bought 2 pairs. I'm going to do this when it comes. I would mount it under my mirror housing but I have top view cameras. That would be awesome though, driving with the image projecting on the floor. Or putting it on the front bumper projecting it on to the floor lol.

i think if the BMW logo is smaller then its more classy for people.

I agree, but if one was to rice out thie BMW anyways, might as well go all the way and get the M logo projector welcome light on a non M car And dont forget the turbo badge and the hybrid badge on the back of your BMW

I don't think it's rice. It's pretty neat. Might be a conversation starter in the middle of the streets when you're getting out the car.... especially with the ladies |
