My new mods
Finally got round to playing with the lights on the scoob.
Firstly, I only got one reverse light as I replaced the offside bulb for a foglight, so decided to go back to having 2 reverse lights again AND have foglights in there too!
I bought a batch of 10mm Ultrabright red LEDs and after a bit of experiment with an old light cluster I had, here's the result:
Only done one side today, will finish it off tomorrow
Secondly
Just to make the scoob a little different, I removed the front indicators completely and put the bulbs into the sidelights, then fitted 10mm warm white LED's in there as well.
Indicators removed:
Just need to do a little trimming to tidy the bumper up.
New LED sidelights:
Indicators:
The LED's are a bit to bright as they drown out the indicators but it's a simple fix, I put 5 LED's in each unit so will have to take 1 or 2 out.
When I get time, I'll do a fitting guide on my website.

Thanks guys, been playing around with LED's for a project at work and thought I'd give it a try!
I really fancied doing something with the scoob to make it look a little different and with the indicators gone, it's subtle and hope it gives the front end a little bit of an aggressive look.
Was thinking about the Audi R8 style, but thought it may look a bit naff
