The mod looks good in the sense that everything came out uniform and nothing looks half ass from what is seen. I'll give credit so far for those installers who took up the task of re-soldering new led's in place of the old ones. Thats no easy task at all.

How much did it run you to get your interior lights all changed? Curious to know...

The only thing that kind of pulls me away from from giving this mod a thumbs up is the gauge cluster now looks like a set of those once popular APC indiglo gauges. Still, it would catch the attention of a BMW enthusiast if seen on the street.

Charlie for the LED's for the whole X5 color change my guess would be around $400 to $500 (for good quality SMC LED's). This is anything and everything that was amber. It would also depend on the color of choice... I had to have blue which is one of the highest cost colors.

The guys at Highline Car Audio have said that it would probably be around $1500 for them to do the whole job.

But if I every get a new X5 I can guarantee that it will be the first thing I do to it..... I love the look!

I couldn't imagine anyone willing to pay that kind of money for that mod. I dont disagree with the cost due to the difficulty of the job. The skill and patience needed to tackle this assignment isn't something everyone posesses.

At least you did it the right way, the first time you did it. The interior lighting doesn't look half ass or anything close to mickey mouse. Looks good.
