My overall impression of the product is good. The entire install took me about 2.5 hours total. It really looks VERY nice when it is done. Especially in the dark. Unfortunately I can’t get really great pics in really dark conditions.

The instructions that come with the kit are VERY poor. No word on how or where to do the wiring. If you have any experience however you can figure it out. I just used trial and error basically.

Any questions? Comments?

The Doc…..

Yeah, you can see them a lot better with the Lambos.

Nice DIY once again Doc...thanks for sharing. Excellent addition to the "wow" factor of the Lambo's.

Nice add-on! I like subtle things like that.

Just an FYI for any guys planning on doing this mod: rather than stripping the door switch wire, you might consider using a wire splice connector instead. It just snaps over the factory wire and bites into it automatically when you press it together, meaning you don't have to strip anything and worry about cutting a wire accidentally.

Yeah, but why use the proper equipment when you can be a hack like me and do it this way!

I'm sure you could change the color of the lights but I have no experience with this.
