Default ordering my mustang need help with options asap ambient lighting ?

Im ordering my mustang from my local dealer on wed.
The options i want are as follows
1. black mustang with dark charcoal interior
2. shaker 1000
3. int upgrade package
4. Anti theft
5. HID head lights
6. 18 pollished bullits
7. 3.55

the dealer is giving me everything at invoice not msrp so with all that it is going to be 30302 with out the fees like sales tax

My problem is i was wondering does any one have or seen good pics besides the one on google of the ambient lighting option?
I was wondering how cool and bright the led's acually are?
Ive seen aftermarket tube lights in my friends cars but i was wondering how they are in comparision.
I like the idea of it but i dont want it to be a waste of money/a p.o.s. that breaks.

im paying this car off all by my self while in college so any input on the ambient lighting option ?

forget the ambient package and get the dove interior, you'll like it.

i have the ambient lighting, but no camera handy at the moment. they're a nice subtle touch at night, during the day, it's horse-sh|t.

if you wnat 7 different colors in your cupholder, driver/pass foot area and 2 little leds in the rear section, get it.

i forget about it sometimes, but when it's pitch black out and i turn it on, it makes me feel like a ricer!

I though it looked pretty cool, but don't say "it's just $300." That's still THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS. Think about what you could buy with that and compare it to how happy that would make you vs. how happy it would be to have little lights in your car. I think cheaper aftermarket ones would be better if you want it.

How bright are they in the foot wells? expecially under the dash
And
Is it something you can turn off?
I just see it as something that might end up breaking or since the switch is right next to the cup holder it might get switched accidentally.
But on the otherhand it will be something cool to have making the car look meaner inside.
any more input ?

I would get it. I'm all for getting cars as loaded as possible (within reason). There is nothing worse then when someone buys a car that they can't really afford so they get it with ZERO options. (I know this is not the case here, just a rant)!
Honestly though, I think it's a nice touch, I mean who really cares about the My Color options, I never use it personally but I'm glad I have it.

I'd get the black/parchment combo interior instead if you can get it. Would look sweet with a black car.

I got and heard of much better deals - is "invoice" the best you can dowhen you're ordering?
