Can't comment on whether they are good or not, but $10 is incredibly cheap. With the amount of work that goes into putting a set of those on, hope you can find someone that has actually used them and can comment on the quality.

Yep, those are the exact same ones we got. He contacted the vendor and ordered the dimmer switch to replace that funky on/off switch.
He's been working on wiring the faceplates to automatically turn on when the UV lights in the dash do. If you look around in that thread I referenced you'll find some info on that.
Edit: Personal preference but I don't like that big center ring glowing so I would cut the trace feeding those areas...

I ordered the kit last year. I installed them and the backlighting lasted about 5 minutes and died. They still looked good so I put some leds to light them up. If you don't mind taking the chance they are a steal.
