Phone Tray Illumination VW T6.0 Multivan (Handyfachbeleuchtung T6)

A DIY solution in OEM-quality for illuminating the phone tray of your VW Multivan T6. Includes all printable parts and drilling templates. It is intended to use with a 3mm LED, an appropriate series resistor (e.g. 560 to 1000 Ohm) and the micro switch DG13-B3LA with two M2 Bolts. Furthermore you need some alu metallized tape, wires, connectors, some expendable items and a clue how to wire it all.
The full stage of expansion includes the mentioned switch to turn off the light when the tray flap is closed (solely aesthetical reasons) and the option to connect the cigarette lighter illumination.
Leave the wiring to a car electrician if you are not a practitioner.

Roughly listed steps:

• remove tray from dashboard

• disassemble top cover of tray

• attach drilling template to top cover (the "V" on the front side of the drilling template has to face to you)

• drill the 3 holes with a 2mm drill, deburr slightly

• apply a fitting piece of metallized tape to the right side as reflector

• insert the diffusion disc to the 3 holes

• carefully melt its 3 pins on the backside to fix the disc

• attach drilling template to the right wall of the tray (press on as far as it will go)

• drill the LED hole with a 3mm drill, deburr slightly

• select the appropriate LED spacer thickness, the LED should not protrude at the inner wall side when inserted to the hole

• reassemble the top cover to tray

• insert LED together with spacer, note the correct position of flattened side

• fix LED and spacer with a drop of glue

• insert the microswitch holder, begin with the slotted side, then carefully push in the other side with the locking latch

• attach the switch accordingly with two M2 bolts

• do the wiring at your convenience, use the holes in the back side of the micro switch holder with a wire strap as strain relief
