I have a guy I ordered the light pipes, clips and screws to do the ambient lighting from also. I bought 2 of the gm led and wiring harnesses right from the dealership though for about $10 each.

So You added the ABL? Does it work perfect?

Yes, I like the way it came out. I haven't seen it next to a stock car at night though, to be fair. bright enough for me though...

How much did you spend total on that mod? I would love to add ABL to my car!

So for $76 You can get 2 doors worth of light pipes and clips/screws to install all this into your panels from member "2SSRS" including shipping. Then go to GM and get the 2 led harnesses/lights (1 piece) for $10 each ($20 total). So for about a $100 you can get all the pieces and I am very happy with the results.

Jamie-

I originally used the same person/vendor Tom did as well... he's AWESOME to work with, very helpful and his parts work as described...

However, I'm not completely content with the ABL tube (light pipe)... another company, SJMAutoprod had come up with a new tube recently... I had ordered it already, but it got damaged during shipping, they refunded me however had no more instock,and I never got around to re-ordering. The tube (IMO) looked significantly better... not that there's anything wrong with 2SSRS parts-had them in my car for a year, I just liked the SJM tube better. Here's a link to their site:

If you decide to order from them, let me know first, I'll split the shipping with you and order myself a new dash piece...

Heres a video of the pipe as well...





The difference lies within the reflective surfaces used to shine the light. 2SSRS parts have what appear to be a white "paint" on the back, which scratches and chips easily, leaving "dead" spots in the light... (I can show you on my dash...) whereas the SJM uses a very similay method to the factory pipes... a thin "wire" looking bead, and they taper it near the ends to avoid the bright-to-dim fade as the light travels down the pipe... if that makes any sense

[DesignAlot]

Yeah, I would like to order one for the dash also...
