Another quick write up.

I created an Aliexpress account and bought myself the gloss backlit stereo surround.

It was about £20 delivered and arrived within 10 days.

The fit took 10 minutes, it's 4 x T20 screws and a couple of clips to swop your heater panels over. It makes a really nice difference to the dashboard.

The LED lights are quite bright, with lights set to sports mode the back lighting is blue, in normal they are orange like the rest of the car. I'm really happy with it, although the LED's are bright I would gladly have it and just fit it without plugging the lights in as the gloss fascia is so much nicer anyway.

The panel comes with a Y adapter built in, so unplug the little under light and plug this in between.

A couple of pics for comparison and link below.
