Any update on the DIY? Would like to possibly do the same. Also, how do your steering wheel buttons and door switches light up?

Love the mod man, looks super clean! Any update the DIY or links to the kit you bought?

I found a similar kit from LED Outlet.co I have been thinking of buying.

Any advise you have based on your experience from the install?

Have you considered or tried carrying the light strips along the trim on the dash?

Can you make a video or update? I’m currently doing the same with my g37 but i want to know how you routed the tubing to the door..i have a simple way im planning on doing but not 100% sure i want to go that route. My tubing is also A LOT thinner than yours and looks oem so if i can get mine done successfully it will look better than yours no offense lol. I want to make a video aswell.

I'm 75% of the way done on my install, finished the driver door and dash. I'll try create a write up within a week on how I did it. Tried to make it as close to OEM as possible. Since the door panels were off I also added sound deadening, wrapped my trim pieces, and got rid of all of the rattles.

Looks pretty good, one thought that I had but never got around doing was to hide the LED trim underneath the actual door trim itself, that way only the glow is visible.
