Interested in the cubby LED. I've seen a DIY on that before but never pursued it. Looks good!

Nice! Admittedly haven't watched the videos as they look like they cover the cupholders. Do they also discuss wiring for the cubby LED?

If you wire it and code it throught your BCM you can have controllable dimming lights in the cup holders. I just finished it and I like it, the cupholder led was done by myself. In my BCM 5q0937087aa I had c31 open so I coded it to ambient 2.
