So, how's the paint holding up?

 

does anybody know the type of bulb that is in the fog light switch??

 

With all this work to make all the gauges the same color... why have a headunit that doesn't match at all?

...or is that next on the color conversion check list?...

 

i've seen the OEM cd player DIY on here.

just a question my foglight switch has an empty slot for a bulb. is there supposed to be one in there.

any btw i already did the HVAV looks really nice and i just used an ORANGE DECOCOLOR.

 

i did this one too, once you get the center console apart you just have to pop out and disconnect the switch. once it's out there's like two tabs you have to push out slowly. just like the other kinds you have to be gentle or else they'll break. once inside apply the color then, voila, you have your amber...

my bulb went out on this switch, so i advise everyone to do this at your own risk. the bulb isn't like the ones that you can easily switch out. the bulb sits on the little boarch itself and has like two electrical parts to it. sucks for me. but i'mma see if i can find a replacement bulb somehow. i just hope i don't have to find another switch!

 

i would prefer to have at least the blue part in the climate control for temperature remain blue... you know... cuz its cold and all

 

Just did this THANKS

 

Just finished doin this...looks decent, I'm just going to add a little more red to my taste. The console takes little time to get apart. Like 6 screws and thats it. Thanks!

 

awesome write up! looking to do this over the weekend.... thx!

 

looks great!!!!

 

If I wanted everything blue instead of red, would it work If I painted all bulbs blue? I will have a AIM dash soon so want to match that color.

 

I've had this on my subscribed list forever, finally started some tonight, works great. I used Elmer's "Painters" Opaque paint markers, worked nicely, nice write up, well done. Thanks !!!!!!

 

could you be a little more specific on where the copper retaining clip needs to go on the fog button assembly.

i attempted to do this mod to my ACD button (which should be the same) and now when I push the ACD button it only remains on tarmac mode. I think I have the copper clip is in the wrong place.

any help would be appreciated.

 

You do realize that you could get results 100X nice just going with LEDs right? Its super easy to do, and SMD leds are actually smaller than the stock bulb. You only need to measure the voltage at the output and chose the correct resistance for the LED based on ohms law.

 

Great write up everything worked great, except now my dash dimmer, ash tray, and cigarette
lighter light wont come on. Anyone run into a similar issue and know how to fix it? The fuses
are fine and the dimmer still dims the dashboard and the cigarette litter still heats up, just no lights.
