Hi RootKit, yeah it croosed my mind mate, that would be defo the plan if it were just a straight power/earth tap somewhere nearby - but each wire harness (front left/right and rear left/right) has an inverter. Power needs to be straight from the fuse box as an additional fuse is added plus the signal tap to the KBM module (interior lighting) to provide each door with the correct signal. There's a central earth point nearby as well. Great BMW engineering though; cable length, material and install instructions all perfectly matched.

Nice look and I would like to have the lights. Unfortunately, the mod seems to be above my skill level.
