great guide, step 9 confuses me though 

any chance of a pic of them illuminating the car at night. eg how well they light the car up?

Sure- The final fronts should arrive tomorrow (Didn't realise there were 3 bulbs there as ordered before i got the car) so it'll be blue all inside - I'll take a pic tomorrow night.

The blue is in no way anywhere nears as bright as the standard - but with the silver car and black leather i persoanlly think its a nice touch (just need to do the door led soon).

Yup these were the two that arrived today. I'm sure its the same in others but in my car the front interior light actually has 3 bulbs in it. The left and right are these and the center one the other link.

The left and right can be turned on with the switch and the center just when doors open.
