Looking to see if anybody installed the factory oem Kia interior lighting kit. Any videos or pictures of yours would be very helpful. I'm considering doing the same for mine

It wouldn't come with any of the models unless specifically opted for it from the factory but you can buy the part from Kia and have it installed
They came with my GT-Line and I didn't order it with them. Honestly, I could do without them too it doesn't make as big as a difference as you think they would. They aren't very noticable, since all it is, is an LED in the front driver and passenger side foot well. They could have done better with it. I can take photos tonight if you would really like to see them.

Thanks for your reply that's crazy that it's only in the front two foot wells. I thought it was in more places as well

I Installed my own aftermarket lights. 6 led strips. 2 in the footwells, 2 under the seats facing forward, and 2 under the seats facing back. It was all hardwired in the center console.

Looks nice. Did you hardwire? If so, where? I'm looking for some info on hardwiring something similar in mine.

Mine came with them from the dealer. Keep forgetting they are even there because they really aren’t bright at all. The set up on it is nice but I would go with aftermarket lights. Would probably be much cheaper too

Is this the 2021 GT-line premium package? I saw other people display screen with the map option but I didn’t get that and I got the full premium package

This is beyond accurate. The lighting they provide honestly sucks pretty bad. It isn't impressive at all, and for the cost of you to get it installed isn't worth it...at all.

I did not get them hardwired. There is 3m tape on the back of each strip. Just stick it onto the surface after cleaning it. You can tuck the wires in the paneling pretty easily as well.

And thanks. These also came with a remote

Are these lights factory? I like that. Does anybody know if the glass bar in the dash in front of the passenger seat lights up or does anything?
