Finished painting my console / gauge trim, what'd you guys think? I'm happy the light still shines through for the A/C panel

Yeah, how long did all that take you? I've been tempted to do this for a while, but taking my car apart has never really appealed to me when I don't know exactly what I'm doing; neither has soddering.

This project actually took me like 4 days. I had to go back and forth between the store for some supplies too. But I'm glad I finally finished

There's an install guide in the install section if you want to check it out. Besides that you could replaces your gauges or just be creative and think of replacing anything that lights up in your car to be blue

What exactly did you use stickers on? I used the stickers to cover up the little icons on the AC panel while I painted it. I took them off later so the light will shine through even after painted.
