Interior Floor Lights

I am wondering if there is anyway to modify the interior floor lights so they will stay on after i close the door and turn the car on? Basically i want them to be on while driving, I have looked into other options such as the LED strips. Although they seem fairly simple to install and operate, i would prefer to work with what is already there in the car. Any idea's??

Thanks you for insight you can provide.

Here's a tutorial. You will need a VagCom cable.

However I have been looking for the appropriate VagCom cable but cant find out for sure which one I would need. Im not sure if they are to different for Audi A4B8's?

I would pay the higher price for a Ross Tech rather than take a chance on one of the pirated knock off's found on ebay.

If you only want to do a couple of things with it, you might find someone locally who will help you out.

I appreciate the heads up and ive been doing some searching. As it turns all I have found a lot of "dupes" from other company's and read many reviews about people buying other cable's and such just for them to knock-off software and all. Its a bit of a shame though that the cable and software key is $350 but i suppose if you are willing to spend the money it is worth it.
