What do you think of this?

Tomorrow I'm going to buy transparent blue paper like the color of the brights indicator and type up all the little warning sign/turn signal lights, then replace them all on my cluster Yeah, I gotta do some little things now that the car's actually fast.

way to use your first post wisely. You might want to clean up the vehicle field under your name, it could really use some work.

it's really not that hard to figure out... he's doesn't like the fact that alot of the colors in your cluster are different colors, so he's making them one uniform color. i'd like to do this myself actually so let me know how it turns out...

Haven't really had time to do it, but it's really easy. Just gotta get some blue transparent plastic paper, take off the cluster cover, pull off the old labels and stick the little new blue ones in there. This way the seatbelt light, SRS light, turn signals, ebrake, etc... all light up blue (or whatever color you want I guess). I'm bored and somewhat broke so this would be a nice little thing to take up a weeknight or something.

i want to do the cluster, and then change all the lights on the dash as well (a/c lights, rear defrost, hazards, etc.). cheap and easy, plus i think it looks damn good when u do a good job...

oh, thanks for the clarification. most people would just change the light bulbs in the clusters, but your way sounds simpler. good luck and let us know how it turns out (we want pics!!!!!)

Is the film clear or colored? If it's clear I'll just throw bulbs in there... I always though each little indicator had clear bulbs with different colored plastic over it.

I'm pretty sure its a colored plastic as opposed to colored bulbs

A) In my dash, when I light up the dash, I see a tiny little strip of green from my turn signal indicator light up. There must be a lil bit of light leaking from the speedo/tach (drives me a lil crazy )

B) I think it would be much cheaper for Honda to put colored plastic/film in the dash rather than colored bulbs.


In the dashboard however, those are bulbs. You can take off the dash, pop off each lil bulb and solder on a different one. Not much work, you just need to have a soldering gun handy. I wanna do it, but have no solder gun and dont feel like finding one.
