bluliz Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 right, you need to sand the fronts down to White plastic, so you lose the black layer and pictures, then the green layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sime73 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 right, you need to sand the fronts down to White plastic, so you lose the black layer and pictures, then the green layer. or easier.... heat it up and it peels off, dead easy, then use the same led bulbs as the clock ones u get off ebay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 so...wot do u do to make a quality colour like them pics?/???from the beginning please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scraggzy Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Well first of all i've just found a set of heater controls with blue leds soldered in but the from wants the black sanding off as above. - open to offers, i paid well over the odds for it but it can go for me. Secondly, the heater controls have 3 leds in. i've fitted 3 colour changing ones that get out of sync with each other so those effects happen naturally - got them in the clock and main dash too, looks mint imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reid Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 on the heater controls where the numbers are.. this can be heated up and peeled off? or MUST it be sanded? if so do you do it from the back where the bulbs go or the front where the numbers are?
