NICE! I like that, but don't you think it's time for some OEM all weather mats?

I like the custom painted white better because they bring out my blue LED plus they are cheap and work very well.

i got blue in rear dome and 2 white+ 1 blue LED in middle of front dome..

doesnt look too blue, but when you shut car off its JUST BLUE, cus only rear and middle front dome LED turns on and their blue and then i open door and the whites turn on and it looks pretty cool, plus i got 20% all around so it looks sick when it goes down LOL

i like the blue for the feet ... i might do that. i wanna just change the stock bulbs to blue for driver and passenger feet.. anyone have a link for a tutorial or know if its easy? and waht kinda bulb.. tanx!

It's pretty simple, regular speaker wires, 5mm blue led from ebay and resistor to work with 12v, electrical tape, fuse tab to tab into the acc fuse on the passenger side because you don't want to splice into any wire and ruin the warranty. The fuse tab and lights can be remove at anytime. and also a off/on button to turn off the blue and go back to original factory white if you don't like it bright blue. The blue light on top near the dome lights, I had to cut off the white led and just put in a blue led.

white lights are too blant for me. It's luxury but just does not bring out the lights enough. blue on the other hand is more striking. it depends on your taste.
