It's electro-luminescent wire. Uses a 12 volt powered high voltage transformer (very low power consumption). Those in my picture are just temporarily powered by a battery for the picture.

I think I'll keep the shifter for now. I'll pull the dash and console strips out and add a strip in each footwell. The shifter will be wired into the dash light circuit so it's on with the headlights. The footwell will probably just tap into the dome light so they're not on unless the door is open or dome light switch is on (this is how my current footwell lights are wired, but I don't like them...too bright).

They really are a sight to behold in person. The glow is mesmerizing.
