So does the little circle in the lens magnify the light or anything?

Just did mine, all the cool guys had em so I had to join the cool peeps club! Bought these and the GTR start button last Saturday and they arrived at Nissan today (thurs). I had already changed out my LED's with JW Motoring red leds so these were simple to pop out again:) I do like them better as well.

hey wats that red you see through the lenses? :confused: does yours light up red?

Done and done! Thanks for the tips on the parts!

Anyone have any opinion/experience/review on these?:
Linky

I might get them and pop in the LED lights for hatch/map lights. Probably white (not sure I could stand red or w/e).

Pics!

that's just the power wires that come out of the socket to the board. Its the way the ones from JW motoring come. In the stock covers you couldn't see them, but this is more clear. Still, unless your close you never see these.

Did mine last night, added in red LED's, love the way it looks with the seats on my 40th. There is enough light even though it's red where you can still see and I think the clear lenses help the light go throughout the car a little more than the factory covers. Very easy to install, I used a eye glass screw driver to pop off the covers.

I think the 100 includes the price of the GTR button + leds ... which would make sense.

:wtf2:

I odered this kit from the USA and fitted them in conjunction with the GTR clear lenses.

My initial thoughts are that they are way too bright.
