I wrote a how-to on this. If you are interested in it email me and I will send it to you. I have also sent it to Lance but I don't know how long until he posts it.

BTW I don't have the pictures for the how-to yet. As soon as I do this mod on someone else's car I will take some and then add them to the how-to.

It's mainly for night, when you want to get out, just look for the little blue light. Also it's something different and looks better.

How hard would it be to change all my little green lights and guages to blue? I think the blue looks really cool plus it's my favorite color. I want all my guages and switches and such to be blue. Anyone know how to do that?

If you have a steady hand, and are a little patient, you can do the dash LEDs. As for changing the guages and the HVAC, contact Brad Noon about buying one of his guage panel replacements.

I want all my guages and switches and such to be blue. Anyone know how to do that? It's very simple because the switches in the doors already use led's. Just need to remove the switches, and very carefully open them up, trying not to loose the little metal contacts, they will fall out and get lost if you aren't careful and then the switch won't work. Anyways, once you have it opened up, you will see the led and the resistor. Just find you some led's in the color you want, and replace the green ones. don't forget to change the resistor if the new led's need less power than the old led's. As for getting blue gauges, you can always get brad's gauges. I have his blue ones and they are awesome! He also has the HVAC panels too.

I forogt when I was looking at his guages but do the HVAC ones light up too? If so are all the green parts blue?

Both the guages and the HVAC will light up any color you want them.
