Wow, thanks for the comments all.

Also, now that you have had it for a while, is there anything you would do different? More/brighter lights, etc?

Thanks!

Yea, superbrightleds.com can be weird to navigate. I used LBM-W2-LP (cool white) for the rear footwell illumination and gloveboxes, LBM-xW4 (cool white) for front footwell illumination, and hf5-b5590 for the front footwell ambient lights. Another good place (but more expensive) for LEDs is oznium.com, I like their straight black modules

Things I would probably do differently:
1) kill the blue ambient footwell lights - just can't get myself to like them really...
2) use LBM-W2-LP for front footwell illumination - LBM-xW4 is a bit too bright and bulky, but they're great for trunk illumination!

Otherwise, we're loving the mod.

Looks great!!! Your wife got a sweet ride. I'd like to do the ambient lighting eventually...and lighting in the glove compartment would be more than useful.
