I was wondering if anyone out there has changed the colour of their dial lights? I saw a TV show recently and they changed the dials to a cool blue colour and it looked.... errrrr.... cool

Posted a link yesterday regarding light switches that glow through blue as well. Think this may lift the interior of the car a little without getting too MaxP.

Thoughts??

Blue (not too dark) sounds fine, a lot of cars use blue as a standard colour now. As long as it's not too bright it'll look good. Needs to be on a blue car with contrasting (lighter) interior I think to work best.

Do you think? I have a Golf company car and that has a blue and red dash with a dark interior and comes on what ever colour golf you like.

My car is Starmist Crimson. Feel it would look good what ever the colour combo. My stereo is mainly blue and was going for a more matched 'modern' look.

Do you know if its easy to change the bulbs to blue? I know its not that easy to take the dash apart but this may be a winter project.
