diodes in the armrest (lamp) — Toyota Mark X, 2.5 liter, 2005
I always wanted to make a lamp for myself, so that in the evening, when you stand in a conspicuous place, do not turn on the light, so that privacy rules are respected :).
so, I decided to mount a couple of diodes in the armrest
after the diodes and the button were attached to them, the question arose of how to conduct the wires, because the armrest rolls, and this is what was invented:
iron contacts were mounted along the edges of the armrest and the mechanism that rolls it and raises it, which, when the armrest was opened, were completely connected. Thus, if the button is on and the armrest is closed, the diodes do not work.
this is what happened in the end, although the photo does not shine very well, but in reality it hammers not childishly, in general, it’s enough. The armrest itself can be fixed at different angles and, accordingly, the lighting area can be changed. Or do not open at all, but roll back to the end to select disks.
not well, if there is a need for this, then it turned out very carefully;)
as if it were so)
Thank you, as I already wrote, the point is not to turn on all the lighting on the ceiling in the evening (which is also diode and not childish), when you need to consider something, and you are parked in a crowded place, for example, on Tyuz or Biga and when the light is on, you look like in an aquarium, and illuminated)
neatly) I opened it, I thought it would be a Christmas tree. And here it’s very neat)
but what was the point of making this backlight? or is it so show off?)
I read bortovik, in general I like all the work, everything turns out great and very neat! )
snap off the panel with a handle under the armrest, which opens the armrest, in places where there are rubber peeps
