does the ring around your ignition switch light up as per jdm models :?: .
i ask because i noticed this on andy benns jdm ST205, and on investigation mine has no bulb holder or wiring in place for this even though there is capability to do so. has someone just removed it and not replaced :oops: or is it another small uk, jdm difference.

My JDM 94 has one? I just changed the bulb for an LED looks rather nice,

We also got a ring of light off, of a ST205 that was being broke? not sure of year or origin though, i'll try and find out :-?

now we just gotta figure out where to wire it into so it delay switches off with the interior light /door lights.
gonna trace the wiring back on andy's next weekend. if that is unsuccessful then i will try wiring it into the doorlight wiring

No light on mine either. I always assumed either the bulb was blown or it's related to the non working intermittant rear wipe setting

My JDM has a green ring of light triggered when you use the remote key fob to unlock the door. The light stays illuminated for approximately 10 seconds.

BTW...I like the cool blue LED Andy! 8)
