Looks good. Was it tough to install? If I ever do any mods to my interior I may try running some LEDs under the dash.

I like it. Was it a kit or did you wire it up? I'd like to do this.

I got my kit from ledglow dot com and it was simple to do.. you can either tap in to the fuse box for power on the passengers kick panel, or wire it like i did to a solderless cig plug and plug it into one of the two outlets

Cool site. Here's my experience for your enjoyment:

Please wait for a site operator to respond.
You are now chatting with 'Ray'
Rob: Hi Ray
Ray: Hello, how may I help you today?
Rob: I'm interested in the 6pc. Expandable Million Color Mini Interior Light Kit, but I have a few questions.
Ray: ok
Rob: If this kit is hooked to a switched line, does it retain the last lighting selection on the control box when
repowered?
Ray: as long as it is hooked up to a constant 12v source
Rob: Maybe I'm not being clear. Can I set up this kit so when the car is off, the lights are off, but when I turn
the car on the lights come on with the last color selected?
Ray: Yes, but your ligths must be hooked up to a constant 12v source
Ray: battery, fuse box, cig lighter etc
Rob: Okay, so you are saying I hook up the control box to a constant 12V. Is there then another control line
that hooks to the switched circuit to turn the lights off when the car is turned off?
Ray: Your kit comes with an on.off switch\
Rob: So is that a manual switch that I have to turn off each time I park my car?
Rob: Are you still there Ray?
Rob: Ray?
Ray: yes
Ray: im sorry
Ray: had to restart my chat
Ray: yes its a basic on off switch
Rob: Okay, no worries.
Rob: So would one of the 7 color or single color kits in concert with a door switch or switched line be more
appropriate for me?
Rob: Since I don't want to worry about having to turn it on or off manually.
Rob: I guess your chat is DOA, thanks for your help. C-ya.

It is a standard Red/Black wire set up, and has a control set up like the one I am attaching here.. It's not complicated other than to wire and place.. I am not electronically inclined, and I got this easily.

Looks good Robb. When you going to change the led's in the heater controls to match, nice 7" touch.
