hey all, seen a blue dash light kit on ebay and was thinking of grabbing one and converting my 98 vs ute to blue dash lights. the kit includes blue lights for the dash, key light and auto shifter lights. i was wondering if they end up looking as good as they do in the picture, how hard is it to do yourself and would it even work because my understanding was that the current lights are white and that theres a green film that makes the green light.
feedback appreciated
cheers, brandon.

They work the needles are dull though they take bait of getting use to

you get used to the needles but you can take off the orange and white from the needles and repaint them just white, works sweet.
how do you get the orange off? just scrape it off? and do they still glow or light up after you paint them white?

nail polish remover works best, but i used brake cleaner. and yes it shines brighter. its the orange thats making it appear dull
looked at your two, both look awesome. deffinately want to do myne now, never pulled the car apart other than the centre console n stuff to put a new deck in, is it pretty tricky doing the whole install or would i be best off taking it down to a shop

Replacing the globes is pretty easy, but if you do the needles you need to take apart the cluster, which is couple of screws and a few clips.
To change globes just remove the dash surround, undo the 2 screws holding cluster in, and it pulls out. Then replace globes and put cluster back in. Test that they are in the right way before putting it all back together
ahhk cheers mate might give it a shot, appreciate the advice

hey guys, just wondering are the stock lights behind the cluster white or green? seen a fascia on ebay with blue dials but not sure whether or not id need to replace globes?

stock globes are just halogen T10s so its white/yellowish
the custom fascias on ebay are designed to be used with stock globes, so dont need to replace them
cheers for the quick reply, might end up just going down that path, something a bit different, im not 100% on the white though, seen a silver one with shifter n aircon fascia too, what do people think would suit or stick with stock n get blue ligts?

id keep stock fascia with blue lights and just do needles white, i think people who have gotten custom fascias are having trouble with patchiness.
Because my ute is green and i didn't want to get green bulbs (globes for you ozzies lol) because green bulbs would give a washed out colour, i just repainted my my needles green. They look good during the day and glow at night.
