Has anyone changed the color of the lights behind the radio and temp gauge?

 

Not that I know of, but I'm about to get rid of the awful yellow daytime light.

 

how you gonna get rid of your "awful yellow daytime light"??????
are you talking about the DRLs?

 

yes, the little 168's

 

arent the DRLs the same as the high beam but just powered with half the voltage? or is that only on the 2006-2009s? in my car there is a 168 parking light (which is part of the DRL housing) which i want to replace with a LED bulb to match my HIDs, but i cant fit my hand in the small space to pull out the 168 bulb and switch it with a LED 168 bulb. do you have any ideas?

 

That's actually what I was doing today. I went to autozone and picked up some silverstar ultra's thinking that the highbeam was the source of the ugliness. That's when I noticed that the little light is a majority of the cause.

In order to change, you might have to pull off your front bumper. I had to work on some other stuff so I had to pull off my front bumper anyway.

I took out the headlight washers. I just hate the wayu they break up the front of the car.

 

im not down to take off my bumper! i guess im just gonna have to go to the dealer to have them swap em out for me with bulbs that i will provide.
you have any idea how much the dealer might charge for somthing like that?
maybe have them swap the fogs while theyre at it.

 

Are you a DIY kinda of guy?

 

All you need is 10mm socket, flat head screwdriver and philips screwdriver

 

Is there a "step-by-step" somewhere?

Thanks!

 

you just need to remove the cover over the front tyers and pull the pulb wire slowley and the bulb will come out. Then change the bulb with the LED one and fit it back. thats what I did and it was easy becuse my hands are small (:

My car looked like this after installing the LEDs

 

about 150, my dealer is $95/hr straight labor rate.
