Hmm, that's pretty interesting. Anyone know how to remove the dome lights yet? Also anyone change the FMIC spray, fog light and HID adjustment lights to red?

I just did this and it looks amazing! It's RED now instead of an orange. I colored the bulbs and put the red condoms over them aswell. This looks awesome, now all I have left to change if my fog light button, FMIC switch, and the ignition ring.

Hi Guys,

I caught this thread just in time. The lights on the dash of my JDM 8 was getting weak and after reading about the remedy here, I decided to give it a go. Thanks to Bolsen's clear instructions, it was 'a piece of cake'. My bulbs were like rsboy's and after I stripped the 3 white and 1 blue caps, I painted them red.

The results are great....Thanks.

The clear needle thing is easy to do just requires patience. I did it on one of my previous cars. But will not tell. If you think hard enough you will figure it out.

Won't ruin Bolsen's Idea.

There are several ways to get the needles clear. But I'm trying to find a better swap and go solution.
