A lot of scions have installed those, they're 1 LED per light. The ones I got from REV-01 were 5 LED per light and cost more.

I must agree, yours do look better. The linked ones are crooked, but maybe that's faulty install. Let us know if you bought them from somewhere different in the write-up!!

Xizor,
Those look really really nice man!
Where did you tap for the signal wire to get them to turn on and off when the door is open and closed? One of the footwell lights?
Also, I'm assuming REV-01 is a member on here, can you PM me his contact info and what he charged you, it seems to me that the more led's per spot light the better it looks
Good stuff, looking forward to the writeup!
