I just spent the afternoon modding the interior and I added the footwell LED strip. Even though I installed the 5000K LEDs, they are more like 6000K. They don't really match the other 5000K LEDs from V-LEDs. I may also cut some of the LEDs off the strip. They look great when fully lit, but they still appear a little bright when they dim while driving at night for my taste. Maybe I'll get use to it. Off thread subject, since I was taking things apart, I also added the LS door cup LEDs, mirror cover LEDs and illuminated door sills...
