Interesting enough I did both the Dash ABL and the Door Projector Mods this week as well..

I'm still having some adjustment issues with the Dash ABL, it's dim in the middle. How did you make out?

Same here, and well mine is too if you look at the picture. i'm gonna try and create more of a gap so the light pipe can shine through better.

I've ordered a few items from them and have always been pleased with the product and the communication.

I bought the same kit and there was no way to make the light even all away across the dash with that plastic light tube. I ended up buying EL wire off of eBay and wrapping that around the plastic light tube. It was the only way I could get the light output even all the way across the dash.

Did you try the weather stripping method?

Looks good! I am sure you'll get the dash lighting figured out. Now all you need to do is swap those ugly halogen DRL's for some plasma LED's and you'll be all set!

How are they not an exact match, when it has a GM part number on the LED?

My only concern about el wire is it's not an exact match to the doors.. Other than that look's great.
