I like it yes :)yes, but i post now for help anyone how want to do this mod.
(PS you already posted the vid here (https://www.i30ownersclub.com/forum/index.php/topic,1074.msg12000.html#msg12000) 8))
Yes I believe it is useful to have a deterrent inside the car.yes, it's easy.
Can you post instructions Yosoypepo?
Thanks mate
That is excellent YOSOYPEPO, thanks very much for posting the details :biggrin:;) are you going to try to do it?
are you going to try to do it?I might.
nice buy.are you going to try to do it?I might.
I would put a single LED on the dashboard, probably near the radio. It would be a blue LED and I would try to locate the power line that is active once the alarm has been set, if possible.
Maybe something like this (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Blue-Chrome-Flashing-Car-Home-Burglar-Alarm-Warning-LED_W0QQitemZ170280731843QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item170280731843&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1301|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318) (eBay)

YOSOYPEPO,my car have alarm but also have wanted a warning light
Did you install this mod because your car does not have a factory fitted anti theft device?
My car is insured for theft, has deadlocks and will not start without the progameable key.
my car have alarm but also have wanted a warning light
i've bought this leds too. i like the blue led infront red ledsare you going to try to do it?I might.

I know it's probably not practical, might not even look realistic, but it'll look cool to me, and that's what counts :razz:
The LED I bought has internal flashing circuitry (2hz)question is, how do I ensure that the red one flashes on while the blue one is off, and vice versa. Either I can work out to set a delay on one of them so they alternate on their separate timers (which I don't know how to do), or I set a new flashing circuitry up and I connect two plain LEDs. Unless there's another option?
The LED I bought has internal flashing circuitry (2hz)where did you buy it?
I said so earlier. From eBay :) same seller you bought 2 fromThe LED I bought has internal flashing circuitry (2hz)where did you buy it?

I'll be fitting the cathode to a permanent +ve, with the anode to the +ve that loses power to the radio when the key is removed. That means the -ve will be provided via the residual earth through the radio when the key is removed. Hopefully.I wouldn't rely on that working, the chances are pretty slim. What I would do is connect a small relay (only needs to be able to switch about 50mA) to the switched 12V that goes on an off with the ignition, while the NC connection goes to permanent 12V. The common would then go to a resistor if the particular LED you have needs it (there are LED's that have flashing circuits and run direct off 12V) then to the LED and ground as per the attached schematic.
I think I'm going to have to find an online reader called "electronic circuit jargon and schematics for dummy's". I've found some great schematics for how to create these circuits, but buggered if I know what a "K1" is or a "CM1-P" :SIgnore the desgination on the relay. I threw the circuit schematic together with the help of the Eagle schematic editor (http://www.cadsoftusa.com/) and just used one of their pre-canned components to illustrate the circuit.

heve you recived blue leds?
ohhh i haven't recived yet. i think blue led may be missing :Sheve you recived blue leds?
Yes a long time ago. I just haven't had the time to do anything with it yet.
heve you recived blue leds?
How will this led work in the car, is it going to blink when the cars off, if so I hope you have better luck than me finding a 12V high current wire when the car's off :lol: :'(Blinks at 2Hz when the key is removed. The two wires I chose were on the hazard warning light button. One is permanent +12v while the other drops to 0v when the key is out, rising to +12v when the aux key position is selected (meaning there is no potential across the LED, so it goes out) :D
