Oh I completely agree.
Pretty much there is no reason to buy a mustang unless u really cant afford a Camaro for 3k more.

Not too many cars have the footwell lights like this so this is def. something I will be getting (if its not too overpriced).
Cant wait to get the build you camaro website (the official one) to see all the goodies.

My mom's tc has it w/ an accesory sw and I've never heard of her using it. Now if the Camaro's is wired directly into ABL that's a big plus.

When most people think of footwell lighting kits, they think of those silly aftermarket kits that look horrible and are actually illegal because they produce too much light.

A well done factory kit is installed seamlessly into the dash, and when they are on and it's dark out they present a soft glow. I would say the white ones look the best and most classy and elegant.

Most factory and dealer installed accessory footwell lighting kits are LED. Lexus was the first manufacturer I can remember having them, and now Honda offers it as a dealer installed accessory for the Accord. I think the Mustang has it as well when you order the "my color" dashboard.

I have seen first hand the footwell lighting in a Lexus LS430, and it is very nice. Adds a sophisticated soft glow, and if you are with a significant other, a good summer drive at night with the jazz or Watercolors station tuned on the XM radio combined with the ambient and footwell lighting dimmed down, and you are good to go!
