Default Post your interiors with lights!

I'm trying to find a nice combo of interior lighting on the SC, something that matches my taste and was wondering what y'all got on yours.

I went simple with white LEDs for the dome, map, door, and trunk lights. Super inexpensive and everyone does a double take when they first see it lit up at night, as it's impressively bright.. I've left all the dash stuff as-is. The SC is too moody for me to want to mess with those aspects when they aren't needed.

I have red and white LED's through my interior, gauge cluster done by tanin, the touch screen climate control unit, and I eventually plan to replace the head unit with one that is also in red so everything will match. Ignore the torn seat, my interior is not perfect yet. This car gives too many other problems for me to ever get a chance to focus on just my interior.

Nope. I don't share the lighting fanaticism of much of the forum. Taking pictures of a light seems pretty pointless to me.

Where did you get the carbon trim around the cluster?

There's this dude on Instagram named The duke
https://www.instagram.com/the_duke0811/

He makes a bunch of carbon fiber stuff and had an extra one he was trying to get rid of. Eventually I intend to do all the wood in carbon fiber as well whenever I finally get around to going two-tone with the interior.

Awesome, thanks! How is the quality? I am assuming he wraps the stock parts, or are they molded? I have the climate control on order, Ill be sending my cluster out over winter, just need all that carbon goodness

He wraps everything, lots of pictures on his instagram of the process. I was pretty impressed with the piece I've gotten form him so far. It's not wavy at all, and the gel coat has held up pretty well over the past year, no fading or yellowing or anything like that. The fitment was fine, all of the buttons and the **** slide right into place and there was no overhang or anything like that. So I'm satisfied with it.
