Now, if there is anyone on the boards who is anti-rice/euro/bling, it's me. But I think these are really cool. I put blue LEDs in all my switches, and I'm getting the panels to complete the look. Frankly, the stock green is ugly, and blue is pretty. If you've ever seen my car, you know it's ugly on the outside, and pretty on the inside: that's the part I see, after all!

I went with blue over red, which is a bit more common on stock vehicles (Audi/VW/Acura...) because I have a red HU in a red car, and a blue interior. I felt like the red would look too much like this, you know?


Whereas the blue matches the interior, and looks more stock.

Anyway, that's my reasoning for why these lights are really slick. And, if just one more person signs up before the 19th, I get a bigger discount So be cool, and get some red or blue guages, and get them for 20% off!

why in the name of all that is good and holy and kittens and puppies and babies would you have just ONE red piece on the interior? Why don't you just walk around town with a big red X across your face? That completly ruins the interior of the car. NEVER EVER EVER start matching interior parts of a car to the exterior UNLESS most of the interior is already that color! Otherwise it just sticks out and looks baaaaaaaaaaad.

Haha! You sound like a fashion expert. "This has to match this, but never if this is this!"

Not that I don't agree I do, I just suck at colors, and it's funny when people get them - whether clothes or cars, I know what looks good - but have no idea why.

Well...I like it Cain. It's not overdone so it looks more like stock to me.
That's my opinion.
