Default how to keep my green instrument lights from coming on?

ok i really think that whenever i turn my lights on and the instrument panel changes from that pretty white to that unly green is really tacky. is there any way to keep the white lights on all the time and keep the green from coming on? thank you

no i do not, i really really wish i did though...i would rather have that than the "ambient color" thing that has led lights in it, is there any possibility in putting the my color in mine? i do not have the premium instrument panel though, only the deluxe one so it doesnt have an info center in it

im not sure, but i think the mycolor is in all the premium instrument panels

i do, however, know that installing a premium intrument cluster with mycolor can be done on cars that dont have them

try searching the forums, i think the question of "how" has been answered here

No, not easy.
The can buss communication prevents this mod from being easy.

Just buy a MyColor gauge cluster it will do what you are wanting to do. I just swapped my stock one out for a MyColor in my 08 and didn't have to do anything other than just switch them, the new cluster worked just fine.

Where did you buy the cluster, and how much?

even then, all your stereo, A/C controls, etc, in the center will still be green
Has anyone changed that out?

that doesnt bother me nearly as much as the instrument panel, that white is really nice looking but that green is crap
