7  Special Notes on the IN-16 tubes 

There are several variants of the IN‐16 tubes. One has a hole with Ø 4 mm in the spacer, the other has not. 

Here you can see this difference: 
 

 

With hole: 

 

 

 

 

without hole 

               

 

 

f you fit any under body lighting tubes, this difference is not important to you. However, if you install an 

I

under body lighting, you have to refer to the following. 
 

If you use the version with a hole in the spacer, there is no need to change anything, because the LED 
exactly fits into this hole.  

But if you use the version without the hole, then you have to drill a hole of Ø4, 5 mm into the middle of the 

spacer. To do so, slide away the spacer from the tube and drill the hole.
