I think they add a subtle touch, but the few times I have been out at night, I don't really pay much attention; usually just get in and out and more worried about making sure I have my wallet and phone. To me, its like black badges - just something you either like or don't like. I've never been a fan of chrome, but I also don't think everything needs to be blacked out - but after seeing the black, I thought they went well with the black pack and the exterior color. That said, I don't find the lights to be a distraction at all and its a cheap enough thing that you can remove if you don't like.

Eh I feel like one of them has dimmed and light is leaking around the edges of the image, but its not a reason not to try them out. It's more of a... you get what you pay for caveat.

I've fitted two sets so far, the "growler" type with red surround like the grille emblem.
Both were only some $20 AU.
But you do get what you pay for, in both cases the red has gradually faded away until it's completely gone.
That's why I bought the second set, hoping they were better quality and the red wouldn't fade but they turned out to be just as bad as the first set.

I like them. This is the type I got from Raymax. I've had others for my daughter's car off of Amazon. The ones with color always fade out, but her white ones haven't failed in a couple years.

When new the edges of the image were sharp giving the logo that laser-like look. Downside was that they did little to, you know, illuminate puddles.
I’ve got a bunch of led bulbs from when I swapped out the footwell lights, I’ll put those into the oem puddle lamps next and see what I think.
