Is there any way you could make the lights in your dash all be red, like when you turn the lights on at night, is there any way you could make the AC lights and radio and all, plus the speedo lights light up red instead of white and blue?
thanks,
Will

You can change the dash lights. Its relativly easy. Its the 194 bulb. Ive done mine in red and blue. The red didnt last and faded into pink and the blue has faded into like a teal... it matchs my head unit so its ok. But if you are gonna go the blub change make sure and get some nice bulbs so you dont have to do it agian when it fades.
As far as the ac etc.. I know people have done it but im not sure how easy it is.

I can vouch for that...I make fun of his :gay: pink lights to this day :D
pink lights forever
what i was thinking that iff the dimmer thiing that we have in our trucks it dims tne radio too, so if you can get open the radio and replace the bulbs there i think it can be done realativly easy..... oh well

get LED's they wont fade, they CANT fade
Either u will get a blue pastic or the actualy diode will give off a certain wavelength that will not change, so, no fading...
U can get LED's in all kinds of colors

LEDS
they look better, they are brighter, they will never fade and they use almost no electricity. they are cheaper than a lot of other bulbs and you can get direct replacements. someone just posted on this today, search for it.
