Changing Dash and Console Bulb Colors - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #4656 18 posts Started by 3TST
Just to let you guys and gals know ...

I found a special paint in my local tuning shop which is used to paint bulbs.
Various colors available.

I removed the bulbs, removed the green caps and then painted the bulb.
In some cases I could not remove the bulb (cigarette lighter, ash tray, ...) from its housing so I painted it directly.

As for results, I can't say for the moment, everything is still dismantled.
keep us updated, i would like to know how this goes.

i am awesome
How did it turn out and what type of paint did you use?????
I tried painting them but ill tell u what i did that works great, just get some of those regular 94 sizes LED bulbs. You can hook them straight up to the wires and it is wild looking. MY cigarette lighter, gauges, and even that little ignition ring look incredible...
Get us some pictures and I'll consider this idea.

i am awesome
theres a few on the profile, not to good though, ill take some tonight.
whats on the bottom of your door panel? is that line visable in the light?

i am awesome
Right now the light strip by the door is visible but I plan on maybe painting it with some type of black transparent paint.It should hide it wel with the black carpets
pics!!

Hi >smile.gif>

When you post pics from ImageStation, you need to remove .orig.jpg from the end of the pics address, so that it only ends in .jpg

Yes, it's annoying >smile.gif> but I guess there aren't many other alternatives. I use www.villagephotos.com sometimes, but they only allow 5MB of bandwidth (viewing) per day.

What do the 94s come in a differant collor? I've looked around, and I just can't find any differant collors or sizes. Sure I can get the regular clear lense but not in multiple collors. Is there anywhere i can get them online or something?
Just search for 94 LED Bulbs

theres plenty of sites for all different colors.
Thanks man, I feel stupid now. I did a search and got much more than I had asked for. Thanks again.
where and how do you install these? and can you get em at an auto parts store or somethin?
