Ambient Light from the Doors of the Opel Astra J

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra J - Years 2009-2016
Part: Checks and maintenance

Learn how to install LED lights in the doors of the Opel Astra J: using a plastic spatula (to avoid scratching the door), remove the door handle of the driver's side. Underneath, you will find three screws that need to be removed to take off the handle. Now you can remove the frame supporting the handle; consequently, the window control panel will also come off. Disconnect the electrical connector, identifying the connectors on the driver's side and the passenger's side, as highlighted in the video. In the connectors, you can insert the LEDs of your chosen colour, then simply reassemble all the door components and the light will shine through them, creating a very pleasant effect throughout the interior.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
