Default Interior illumination kit w/cup holder light kit

I bought the OEM illumination kit (the one with lights for both front and rear) and the cup holder light kit. After looking at the instructions i thought it might be a bit above me so I had the dealer install it . . . Boy am I glad I did. Took them 4 hours and the poor installer guy looked stresssed beyond belief. They did the install for $120 and I was much pleased. And the best part . . . they didn't scratch everything up like dealers are prone to do.

Also for anyone that hasn't gotten one yet. The multiple colors on the cup holder illunination is really cool. It would be even cooler if there was a way to sync it to change colors with the mixer setting on the factory stereo.

I'd say it'd be cooler if the color changes as you get closer to redline.

idling starts at blue and changes to green, yellow, orange and finally red.

but he also got the cup holder LED's, Randodes is only the floor boards. I don't think $120 is bad. If you know how to install it yourself you can buy all the stuff from oznium.com for $25 with shipping lol

I'm well impressed with my kit. I like the factory switches and quality light bars. Plus i'm not brave enough to start splicing wires on a car i've just started my 5 years of payments on.

hey I didn't want to do it either lol. I don't blame you, I didn't ant to mess somethin up and void my extended warrenty. Randode did my floor board and vents. but due to him being pretty swamped lately I went ahead and took the plung. with some help from some family I installed my underbody lights and roof handle cathodes. roof handles=$18 and 4 hours of labor. not bad for someone not knowin what the heck he was doin lol

Yeah, it's got a switch that's got sorta a coffee cup looking image on it. You press it once to turn it on, then you can keep pressing it to cycle through about 7 or so colors or a mixer that cycles through all the colors on it's own every few seconds. If you press through all those it goes back to off.

if you do the toyota ones, can you wire in the vent/doorhandle ones into the same switch?
