On the bright side, I must again give you props on this... the HVAC one looks bad ass in blue (almost as gangsta as your originator-green)!!!

Young Money Can you post some pics of what your blue looks like?

I did the shifter mod to my car, and the blue looks kinda terrible... Might be I bought some really terrible cellophane or maybe I might put the white piece back in and see what that looks like.. Its a great Idea though. I was thinking maybe a little piece of blue tint might bring out the colour more then the cellophane also..

I didn't do the shift lights cause I couldn't get the god damned plate thing off

I'll try to take a picture of my HVAC lights though... should be the same thing, you know?

Aight sorry for the delay, here is a picture of my HVAC... I left the three bottom buttons white just so there would be a contrast... I don't know if I'll eventually change them... but here you go:


(I only did one layer of blue... I think bio did 2 layers to get a deeper green)

Also finally got a picture of my under-dash neons:



Sorry for the quality...took these with my phone... so yea... peace

Wow, that looks awesome Young Money... Gonna have to try just one layer and see if that gets the color right, or I might try another store and see if I can get some better Cellophane, cause mine definately doesn't look like that.. but really nice job on both of your guys

Good mod. It goes great w/ the neons under the car. Don't listen to the "ricer" haters, it's your car!

I did up my shifter with an LED.. Looks sweet, think if i did it again I would have used 2 led's instead of one, could have done it too cause the power usage of an LED is way less then the bulb that comes standard. No offense too, but switching to LED was about 4 times easier then doing the cellophone *****.. I lost that clear plastic peice that goes underneath too, but hasnt made a difference really..
