I got them, no pictures though sorry. They look pretty cool. At first i was disappointed because they seemed extremely dim. But its like your eyes need to get used to it and then you see it better. If anybody has white shoes on, then it's real bright. Now i like it because of its subtlety. If you want something more noticeable i would suggest putting 2 cathodes in each of the four regular locations.

Something to keep in mind about UV... most cameras have a hard time of captureing the UV light output. Your best bet is to buy a single set of cheapies to see how well you like them. Like Lowellster said, it's hard to notice them at first... but man do they pop with UV reactive materials. Have your lady friend jump in the car with some gators on (type of shoes) and you will be blinded almost.

I have some around my urban camo headliner and it really pops the white in the material. I think there is a few pics in the HIN Chicago Pic thread in the great lakes region. The ones around my sub box are pinkinsh purple but light up like a hyper white almost. I got all mine from "xoxide.com" very cheap
