Install Courtesy Light on Passenger Side

Model: Mazda 3 BK, MK 1 - Years 2003-2009
Part: Accessory kit

Installing a courtesy light to help the passenger enter the vehicle at night can be a kind gesture. Obtain a kit with an LED light that should be positioned under the glove compartment to illuminate the floor. At this point, it is necessary to connect the power cables to the electrical system, particularly to the existing wires that power the other courtesy lights, ensuring that the light turns on when the door is opened. For this operation, locate the wires that power the other ceiling lights, which are usually found under the cover of the roof pillar. Once the relevant wire is identified, connect one end of the light to this wire and the other to the vehicle's chassis using an existing screw.
