Default Green Dash Lights...

Has anyone found or done any changes to the dash light colors? I haven't got the IUP and therefore don't have the selectable colors for my display. However, I don't really like the green lights that come on when the headlights are turned on. Has anyone been able to change this to a different bulb? I'd like them in blue maybe, or white would also be cool. Thanks for any info!

i'm not sure white would be a great idea, however- even if it did look cool, i must agree. White is the color of your daytime lights and if you mistsakenly think they are on because of the same guage color, you may end up being pulled over and get in a bit of trouble for... well- other things you may have been doing - due to you driving under, mabye4 street lights? and not realizing your lights were off.

Just a thought...

I usually set my MyColor to white when it's raining as having it colored makes it hard to see. I've forgotten they were off more than once because of this.

if your car has the extra wires its about 350 to 400 to replace the cluster

The daytime white is a dull white while the lights on white is much more brilliant.

the mycolor green doesnt seem boring it's pretty retro but i do like the option of being able to change the color. I mainly prefer the blue lately.
