MZ360258EX Instrument Panel Illumination
RRP = A$338+
CCJ Price = A$318
To give you an idea on how hard it is to install, the install sheet recommends 35mins to install.

Unlikely.
The parts guy at PMR doesn't even get a picture. He just gets the part number and discription. They have another column which gives the recommended install time which is 45mins.
And no one in our club has ever bought this so I don't have one either.

if you really want it, just buy some light bar (its a plastic tube used in LED lighting using 2 LED's it lights the entire bar up the same as the LED)
buy 2 LED's for each side, what every colour you want, then, just install them yourself. simple and done

I have a spare silver dash trim piece at home so I might experement on that and see if I can find an easy way to do it so the lights sit flush with the trim.

id say the best way would be to cut it and recess it into the silver trim like cut a grove so the bar can sit in but not fall through. but it would still stick out, or make up something to hold it behind and make it sit flush. either way you will most likely need to cut your trip piece.

tohk has this fitted in his black Evo X. Haven't seen him around in a while but he's attended a few meets (and he didn't even realise it wasn't a standard feature!). Looks really really epic at night especially since it's so tidy but that being said, the installation effort and price is not really worth it. For that sort of coin, you may as well get a GReddy Informeter Touch.
