Dome Light Dimmer

I found this schematic on another site. It is supposed to be for the dome light dimmer on the Audi TT. The light fades in when the door is opened, and fades out after being closed.



I did a little research and found that the IC can be had for $0.71



and the transistor sells for $0.39.

Sounds like it would be a cheap and fun little project for the car. I'd like to find some flat 2-conductor wire that I can run under carpet or between the spyder and the headliner surreptitously.

Any comments from the EEs in the crowd?
