Earlier I was willing to paint the window roller handle and door lever plastic in black, but dropped the idea of painting and bought new ones.
new vs old door open plastic
alto window roller handle
old window roller handles
new vs old
The multi colour LEDs were used for under dash and rear lighting
(sorry for poor quality pics)
Installation pics will be posted soon

Does this led strip have color control module ? Can we get only light blue led strips ?
Those rollers come with 800 type 2 also. You could have bought opening handle of type2 it would look better.

Yes the led strip has color control module
Light blue led strip is not available. I'll try to decrease the light intensity of Blue LED strip using some resistance and post the results soon. Btw this module and remote is available for Rs 250 and can be used to control the individual RED/BLUE/WHITE led strips.

Few days ago I bought a Vikram Headlight for my friend.
I was willing to make a mounting bracket and fix these in my M800's bumper. I was willing to cut holes in the bumper to accommodate these. I'll remove the square fog lights (as they are useless against SUVs).
The benefit of using this is that this light assembly uses H4, so I'll get high/low beams.
The headlight assembly
Parking light holder
Dimensions of vikram/piaggio ape head light
If I use a Bajaj Boxer head light then I'll need no big holes but fix the light like a fog lamp. But the problem is the depth of the bike headlight Its 4" whereas vikram headlight needs only 1.7"

Earlier I had this setup on my car
The light beams were good, but not the way I wanted.
Later I removed these lights and installed rectangle ones.
It just looked good, but the light throw was not adequate.
I wanted to install some big auxiliary lights with adequate lighting. I searched for 5"-6" fog lights, but the branded (PIAA/NEOLITE) were too costly. Lights from AUTOPAL or other cheap brands were not available in 6".
Earlier I was willing to install Tata Ace headlights in the bumper. But lots of cutting in the bumper was required, so I dropped the idea and bought a pair of Pulsar 150 round headlights.
The open space will have to be closed.
The depth of the light is 4.5"
The diameter of the light is 6.5"
The best thing is the HIGH/LOW beam.
The light will be fixed on the bumper
I also bought a pair of 55/60W Halonix H4 bulbs
More pics and updates will be posted soon.

A little update.
Fixed a grill in the bumper
Earlier I was willing to cut and remove the plastic behind the grill, but didn't cut is as its providing support to the grill.
Also I bought a smaller number plate as the old one was covering the grill

Fixed the new auxiliary lamps. (The pulsar head lights)
Had to cut the rear bulge to reduce the depth of the cover.
Used a tube cutting to close the open space. The tube is sticked using fevi-bond.
Mounting bracket was fabricated
Lights fixed on the bumper.
Both the bumper brackets were changed to new ones.

That is just serious overkill dude.
OverKill ?? Related LOOKS or POWER ?
What kind of alternator are you using?Is the stock alternator powerful enough for all the lights?
I am using the stock 35Amp alternator but it was re-winded by the previous owner. The alternator guy here said that re-winding is done using heavy gauge copper wire thus the output will be 40+ Amps.(Though I am not sure about this) Earlier I used two(sometimes 3) pairs of 55W lights along with 100/80W headlamps with no issues.
Soon I'll do the voltage test.

Overkill with looks, power,energy draw, size, you name it.
Even if it is rewinded how much power is the alternator making.At idle you are killing your battery.I hope you switch off the lights at idle.
Btw, the body of the new fog lamps looks like it is made of plastic.If you use 100w bulbs it will cause the housing to melt.
If you used three pairs of 55w lights together with the 100/90w bulbs how often did you have to take out the battery and recharge it?
