jtc, On the gauges the like 70% of each gauge doesnt let the blue light pass, do you know what to do?


Red - no blue light passes
Green - very dim amount passes

I'm gonna take the bulbs out till I can figure something out. They look like crap and I can't see at night.

It's a Panasonic unit, don't remember the model #. It's like the one here: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-hjZUMqR...=0&cc=01&avf=N except it plays MP3. Touchscreen is awesome. So clean!

HeavensMist:
I'm going to do a test once I get my bulbs in, will post results. As I said in the tutorial, I didn't do the bulbs in the gauges, I've only recently tried the blue as an afterthought.

muuuahhhhaaaa! got it!

that damn bulb is just toooo tiny for my fingers lol (and i've been drinking just a tad of beer)

rip of a piece of duct tape, wrap it around the stock bulb, and pull .. the duct tape allowed me something to grab onto.

Question: Do the OZ/ES/LS have a light for the ignition? I took mine apart and can't find one. Mine has a black rubber thing around it and I don't think it has a light.

Has anyone with a NON-EVO done the ingition light?

I would also really like to see some pics of blue LEDs in the gauges because I want to convert all of my lights inside my 02 Lancer Ralli to blue. I also want to change the HU to a nice aftermarket MP3 one

Oh also, a few other questions jtc if you dont mind.

1. Do you have pics of the clock with the blue sheets you are selling because I would like one if I can see what it looks like.

2. If I want to change all of the interior lights in my 02 Ralliart how many bulbs would I need?
