Car Ambient and Interior LED Lighting in Cardiff
Ocean blue ambient lighting
Yes, we fit ambient and interior LED lighting in Cardiff for cars, vans and 4x4s. From a simple footwell kit to a full OEM-style multi-colour system with a starlight headliner, each install is planned around your vehicle, wired properly and finished so it looks like it left the factory that way.
Try the cabin above: pick a colour and switch each zone on or off. Most of the systems we fit give you the same control from the car's own screen, a remote or a phone app.

Designed Around Your Vehicle
We don't publish prices for lighting because no two jobs are the same. The cost depends on your vehicle, how much of the cabin you want lit and whether the lighting needs to work with the car's own systems. Send us your make, model and year with an idea of what you'd like, and we'll talk you through the options and quote for your car.
Already bought a kit? Bring it in. Our Mercedes GLE customer arrived with a boot full of parts, and we fitted the Burmester-style ambient door grilles and coded everything into the factory MBUX system.
What do you want from your lighting?
Tap the one that sounds most like you, and we'll point you to the right kind of lighting.
Footwell Lighting
Soft light in the front and rear footwells that can be set to come on with the doors.

Every lighting job goes in at our workshop on Penarth Road, not on your driveway. Trims come off properly, wiring is routed out of sight and fused, and the light is spread evenly with no hot spots. Before you collect, we go through the colours and controls with you.

“Took my car in yesterday to have ambient lighting and dash cams put in. The boys have gone above and beyond and I absolutely love the extras they added to the lighting on my dashboard, and the little switch for me to turn it off separate to the rest for me at night time. They thought of it all!”

Car Ambient Lighting FAQs
Is ambient lighting legal in the UK?
Yes, interior ambient lighting is legal in the UK. It must not dazzle you or distract other road users, so we place it and set the brightness so the light stays soft and indirect while you drive.
Will it drain my battery?
No. LEDs draw very little power, and we wire the lighting so it switches off with the ignition or once the doors are closed.
Can I change the colour?
With most systems, yes. Depending on the kit, you choose the colour and brightness from the car's screen, a remote or a phone app. We can also add a separate switch, for example to turn the dashboard lights off at night.
Can you fit a starlight headliner in any car?
Most cars, vans and 4x4s can take one. We check your roof lining, sunroof and any wiring first, then tell you what is possible for your vehicle.
Will it look like a factory fit?
That is the aim. On many models we fit OEM-style lighting that follows the original trim lines and can be coded into the car's own settings, like the Mercedes GLE above.
Can you fit a kit I have already bought?
Yes. Bring it in and we will check it first. Our Mercedes GLE customer arrived with a boot full of parts, and we fitted and coded the lot.
How long does fitting take?
It depends on how much lighting you want. Footwell lighting is a much shorter job than a full multi-zone system or a starlight headliner. We will give you a time when we quote.
How much does it cost?
It depends on your vehicle and how much lighting you want, so we quote each car individually. Send us your make and model with an idea of what you would like and we will come back to you with a price.
