I need to this again to the siggy but may have other plans

Having been used to Ford green for the past 4yrs I quite like the red but I could be tempted by the white especially on the centre display.

I'd probably be tempted to leave the rest red but not sure whether that would look mismatched

The worlds your oyster with color blue does look very good but a green clock glow with blue display Ha ha what ever you want

I was thinking the same to change the speedo to blue and keep the needles red and keep the middle red but change the electric windows to blue??

The centre lcd is qty 4 90° side leds. The needles were qty 4 plcc2 but if your going blue I'd recommend painting the needles blue if left red they'll look black at night

The missus has a golf and I love the layout of the dash colours. It has red buttons and white displays.

I wouldn't mind doing the same but I'm not sure you can get a strong enough aftermarket LED?

@cornishtaz you mentioned to me to paint the needles if I wanted blue, well I actually used a nail file and filed the red off and they light up blue on their own now

[cornishtaz]

@Nemo Cool if you'd used some t-cut would have got the red off. Got any daytime and night pics yhe paint is more to stop the light spreading and keeping it more defined

[Nemo]

Didn't have any to hand

[cornishtaz]

Look a bit turquoise and a bit on the light side. The paint would make them darker like the display.

Still look good and an alternative to painting

[Nemo]

I actually quite like them in the lighter blue, each to their own aha

Can anyone recommend someone to do this?, I'd have a go myself but lethal with a soldering iron

Hello Guys,

I have question, what is the color on the first photo?
It's a some kind of dark led or its just white?
