foot well LED lights

how much does it usually cost to install LED lights in the footwell? I was thinking about getting them installed but it was priced around 90 for installation, is this worth it? i was told it would take 1-2 hours to get it installed.

I personally think the ambient lighting is pretty cool. $90 is a great deal if that is what your dealer quoted you. I've heard ~$200.

Got mine at AutoZone for <$10. Had to take the glovebox out. Wired them to the glove box light. Probably took me 2 hrs, but I wasn't racing.

i just installed some led footwell lighting in my friends coupe. I bought 4 little 4 inch strips from autozone and a switch. I ran extra power wire straight from the battery to the switch and the led lights. mounted 2 under the dash and the other two on the little rim of the backseat that hangs over the floor. overall it turned out pretty well and total was about 85 bucks for parts and ofcourse no labor since he is a friend
