Retrofit ambient lighting

I have a 2010 GL550. I will do a write up on it later. Turned out pretty well. I can adjust the brightness with the factory display. I opted for only one color.



Front door

Rear door

Front Dash and passenger door.

Spent a total of around $20-$30

Hi,
I just came across this post. Is this an OEM kit that was install at the dealer or an aftermarket kit?
Thanks
