We did the AC, defrost, cig. lighter, power buttons with red LEDs and the rest in Blue. I know the pics make the radio and climate displays seem like a different shade of blue, but it's actually just the camera playing tricks. Those who have seen it in person (like flipside 909) can vouch that the color match is perfect and the lighting on the clock and radio displays is very even. I heard that this was difficult to accomplish. We have a local friend who showed us a trick how to do it.

Did the door buttons too. I'm gonna have the hubby do the lighting on the door handles like what TRD-bB did. Saw that. Gotta have it !

Enjoy. More mods later this week.

Thanks !

IT IS nice on the eyes. At night you can see drivers in SUV's slowing down to check out the blue glow.

Default Just arrived fresh off the boat.

Well I couldn't wait to post, so here's a teaser.

I have 3 suspension mods coming in the next couple of weeks.

This one will be installed later on this week, as soon as suspension mod #2 arrives , hopefully tomorrow .

Install pics soon.
