Just wrapped up my install - all went well. Took about 3 hours but I was pissing around watching Netflix at the same time. A few thoughts:

Nice DIY!
I used these LED's instead, the have a very clean way of being mounted, no hot glue http://www.ebay.com/itm/111740443154 |

Bump!
I connected everything using connectors and they're all held in securely. The lights unfortunately I didn't come on Edit: They started working |

This is my approach using the smd LED strip and 3 holes... once shut, you dont see a single beam, works great...

I just did this mod today (Happy New Year!). I drilled two 5/32 holes on the sides and the LEDs fit snugly in them. Then added a little Gorilla Tape to hold everything together in the back. Before mounting, I added two connectors where the lighter was so I can eventually mount a remote AUX outlet in the passenger footwell. Easy and fun job!

This was such a quick, cheap, and useful upgrade, I just did it on another car:
