First mod complete.

I just installed the ECS kit. First impression is that it feels very bright compared to the OEM incandescents. I think this effect is compounded by the Silverstone interior, however it may a cooler light vs warmer light thing rather than an actual increase in lumens.
I find the dome light to be especially bright when entering the car.

The look is certainly more modern and pulls together with the door handles well. If I could tone them down 2 notches in brightness, they would be perfect.

Install was about an hour, as I took my time ... especially with the front dome. As others mentioned, this required some doing.
I would highly recommend disconnecting the bulb housing from the wiring harness before exchanging bulbs. This will prevent a blown fuse from an inadvertent short.
