Please update how you like the performance of the AutoGlow bulbs over time, and add some pics when you can. TIA.

I've had the full auto glow setup for about 5 months now and no complaints at all!
Still look great and crisp white with no blue tint. These really make the SHO interior look right. The dull yellow from Ford doesn't do justice.
And the entire set was only $18!!!

I see these on eBay but so far I can only find interior lights. Do you have a link to the exterior?

I installed the entire interior light kit from auto glow except for the trunk light (went a different route) just a couple of days ago and like them a lot.

I only have the rear "dome" lights to do, I was running out of time so I didn't want to rush it, but they seemed hard to do. I emailed another member who gave me some good advice, but do you also have any pointers? Thanks! And what did you do with the trunk?

For the trunk I'd already sourced two of the bulbs that are included in the kit from another source and installed them on either side of the trunk. I also got an LED strip that I mounted on the bottom of the package shelf. I wired them all together and it's almost like daytime when I open my trunk. Before you do the dome light you want to source a 1/4 watt 470 Ohm resistor. Pull the light down from the back and unplug so you can take it to the table. There are several little screws you have to take out to get the light apart. It's really easy. Now for the resistor, you'll need to bend the wires so they curl around the bottom of the bulb you put in the center socket. The wires have to match up with wires on the bulb. Test fit the bulb first so you know which side is positive and which is negative. If not the two outer lights will stay on all the time.
