Looks good! The lights under the dash is the same bulb you used on the dome lights. Its not hard at all you just pull the plastic thing off and that brings the bulb down with it, twist the lighting unit to take the bulb out

Are those interior LEDs too bright for anyone? Some of the pics I have seen make me question if I want them or not.

Last night when I installed mine they did seem very very bright however I got used to it because that was the look that I wanted. I need to tint my window a little darker so they won't be as bright but it did look like day light inside my car. I like them though and there is no blue tint.

I'll probably end up ordering the kit. I guess if I don't like it I can always take them out and sell them. Thanks guys!

I remember someone saying the factory bulb was 6K for the 7th gens and 4300K for 6/6.5 gens. It would make sense because my lights do have a bluish tint at the cutoff point.

That blueish tint is the reflector of the projector part

Yup. My old 6th gen and my brothers have this as well. I haven't noticed a difference in the color of the two gens when looking at them head on or lighting up surfaces.

Okay. It just seems at night that when the lights are on on my 7th gen the cutoff is better and sharper; more defined in a sense than my 6th gen. I guess that's just me, but it just looks better.
