Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Green Cigarette lighter Light

Hey I lost my cap on my ciggarette lighter and it lights up green and the rest of my interior will be blue and i dono wat i can do to change the color because i took it apart and never seen any lights like it before..

It dosent specificaly say, but there is a light bulb attached specifically to the lighter housing. Just cover it in the celophane and you will have what-ever color you want. Did the same to the lights on the auto shifter too.

i jsut bought a new bulb for mine. got an led bulb off ebay. i really dont recall the number of it but yea it comes out really bright, and even though it looks kidna whiteish it is all blue in my car. So i woudl suggest searching on the site for the bulb number. also the celp[hane will not come out good in blue and will be dimmer.

here it is. this is the same guy i got mine from.

and to make it light up even better i took out the cig lighter part ( push thingy that come out ) and went to pepboys and got hte clear blue cap. came in a pack of 4 differnt ones. was liek $3

^^where did you put the LEDS of the center console? did you replace it with the stock one or you u broke the old ones off and put this randomly at the back on the console

i didnt use leds for mine. i used a 4" cold cathode behind ym ac someone on here thoughdid just put on leds randomly back there i foudn the cold cathode to do the trick pretty well.

i used 2 leds from radio shack and a resistor

yea there ya go. i knew someone did but i herd someone else used liek 6 leds. but yea thats another great way to do it

i used 6 LED's behind the temp controls/ac thing...

i bought an led light w/ 10 blue leds in it, cracked it open and took the circuit board with leds on it out and used that. the lights also scroll from left to right. i'll see if i can't get a video of it.

i went to two peopboys but i can't find that cig lighter thing...

yo here is the video. sorry about the quality its was recorded on my cell. it is a lot brighter in person though.

is this the link to the actual correct bulb size to change the cigarette lighter bulb?
