reminds me of the red lights that newer BMWs have shining into random places.

jimmbomb: i think the lights are mounted in the plastic piece under the head unit. they look like they are shining down onto the AC *****.

Yeah sorry for the crappy pic, but yeah like he said i am going for the newer style in the bmw which has mounted lights in random places, just adding sum nice lights where things should be displayed with a focus on em. But im really aiming for lighting on the upper dash of the xb since its so freaken dark in our cars haha. im working my way up, but yeah this pic was taken with a phone and basically all it is, 3 holes drilled and mounted 3mm leds with some silicone. I'll take pix if you really want some.

cliffs: 3mm leds in 3 drilled holes under the headunit, not goin for anythin flashy, just a clean simple look.
