| Interior light mod WITH sunroof Hi, Looking into some simple but subtle mods now  I've been driving an Audi A2, which has backlit buttons, much like the W8 interior light mod. My Fabia (which I wont be able to get to due to it being repaired etc) has a sunroof, so the standard W8 part suggested in previous posts here won't work. Are there other parts available that would be compatible? I'm not too keen on the extra LEDs (angel eyes IIRC they were called), and I want the backlights to be green rather than red. I don't mind desoldering the LEDs and swapping in some green ones if that's what it takes, although I am a little concerned about whether you can do this. Would it be possible to buy the standard Fab vRS part and fit LEDs behind the buttons? Alternatively, what comes closest to it? Thanks for your feedback

| Re: Interior light mod WITH sunroof I'm sure the Superb comes or did come with a W8 style interior light with green LED's. Also VW do a W8 light with sunroof controls, if you want to change the red lighting for green. |

| Re: Interior light mod WITH sunroof Fair point, that is rather annoying I may find out how much the skoda part costs and have a go at damaging it / seeing if I can get in
