It's an option - think it's around $600?

Are you sure it wasn't a mod that those crazy russians added in? They got some crazy modders over there so it could very well be a mod that they thought of and added in.

I didn't know there was a diy for the pocket lights, didn't even think to search. I just ran some speaker wire from the map lights up top to leds in the pockets. Looks pretty sweet and they turn on whenever the map lights are turned on. really happy with the way it turned out, they are nice and hidden and it looks OEM. it's fairly easy if you have the time.

Part # 08E18-TL0-610C, it's not quite that much, around $320 plus s/h from Europe.

I bought mine a couple of years back for around $250, quite a pain to install as you need to remove the center console for access.

I also bought the leather shift boot and dark wood shift knob (6MT) you see above around the same time from Lings Honda in the UK.
