Car Door Wireless Projector Courtesy Lights – REVIEW & MOD

My 2018 Honda Clarity and other car now lack door courtesy lights so I wanted to try out and test the generic car door projector lights ( https://amzn.to/2T5Lkl7 ) that are found on Amazon for $10- $14 for two. I will unbox, install, review and take apart the projector lights for entertainment. I plan to modify the light in the future videos and see show durable these lights are. The main objective for these lights was for courtesy lights to see if I dropped something on the ground when exiting or entering the car.

In my previous video I added ambient lighting to my Honda and other cars . I used a simple car RGB flexible LED light kit ( https://amzn.to/3nNsQDV ). These projector door lights are battery powered by AAA batteries and are adhered to the door panel triggered by a magnetic switch. Installing these lights took about 20 minutes to position. The curvature of the door panels only allowed for 60 percent of the foot print to be mounted. Being so light weight it worked, but only time will tell. We will do a follow-up video if they fall or fail.

New cars have less lighting for the glove box, storage, and foot well areas.

I wanted simple ambient light that was not distracting and can be set to power on / off when I start the car. I bought two kits to review: USB powered 5 volt flexible LED light kit ( https://amzn.to/33MbKhM ) and a 12 volt version ( https://amzn.to/3nJki0H ). I choose to use the USB powered led lights due to the lower voltage, lower heat generated, and flexible material to mount to the curvy interior panels. There are also smart phone versions ( https://amzn.to/3iKgatO ).

I made previous videos on how to set the theme for the new Honda infotainment system colors and theme.

Adding this led light kit to the interior to match the colors in the infotainment was fun. I also wanted to match the sport drive mode red. But overall I wanted low amber color light so I can see any items that may be in the dim glovebox or foot wells. My install took less than 20 minutes . I only installed the lights removable panels that do not have any electronics or air bag modules. The LED lights are also placed so they do not glare and distract me while driving.

How to REPLACE / MODIFY Dahon Speed D7 / Mariner Rack Bungee Luggage Strap ($3)

This video is how to replace the strap of the original Dahon rear cargo rack bungee luggage strap. My original Dahon luggage strap lasted about 2 months before it lost it elasticity. The Dahon OEM strap costs about $12-$15 from Dahon or resellers. I never bought a new one and just tied it to my rack for over 12 years and just used grocery panniers ( https://amzn.to/3lCu56O ) and bicycle trunks ( https://amzn.to/3nFxx2n) .

My 2008 and 2009 Dahon Speed D7, and Dahon Mariner D7 ( https://amzn.to/30Wo8d9 ), are 20 inch wheel folding bikes that came with a rear carry rack and a unique Dahon bungee flat luggage strap with a rack specific anchors. I have bought generic flat bungee cords to replace old stretched straps ( https://amzn.to/3lzosq5 ) over the year, however didn’t want the original anchors lost so I decided to replace the broken strap.

You can use customize and personalize your own strap with your own color by replacing the strap. I saw HDX 48 inch flat bungee cords in green at Home Depot for under $3. It is too short for a 3 strap design of the original. Its enough to make a two strap version. For 3 strap design, you will need at least 72+ inches of flat bungee cord. If the new cord has ends you will need to remove or cut them off with a pair a scissors.

You need to remove the both Dahon strap anchor covers. Pull out the end of the bungee cord with the end clip. Use long nose pliers (https://amzn.to/36U8vXm ) to loosen the clip. You will need to reuse the clips. Run the new 48 inch through the two side holes on the original clip. If you have a 24 inch flat bungee cord you can alternatively make a 1 strap replacement through the center hole. If you can find a 72 in bungee cord you can string it like the original. You will need a large pair of pliers to clamp the clip back on the new bungee cord ends. I use a Channel Lock Groove Joint pliers ( https://amzn.to/30VRgBf ) . make sure the length of the new cords are equal length. Replace the anchor covers. Test on your Dahon rack. Done!
