I swore there was a thread on here somewhere but i couldnt find it so sorry if im double posting about the same thing. anyways....
i originally had it red because my ext. color is red but red isnt a good color choice unless u have the perfect material to use for it, so i changed to blue since my headunit is blue...

what the original piece was after i popped it out:


what i used:


the clock off:


the clock on:


the clock on when its dimmed cuz of the headlights on:



**I'll get more pics of it when its dark out but that will be later on tonight**

cut the green wire on the clock wire harness so that it would not dim when the headlights are on. Yea I agree that red is not a good color choice for the clock unless you have the right material... it's coming out orange or a bit purple-ish.

yeah or pinkish.
are you sure the green wire makes it dim?
cuz im ready to cut it and i just wanna make sure

good job, quick & stylish mod. A+

But what would be really cool, is to turn it GREEN!! Makes my life easy knowing that i'm doing all my interior light colors green, they're half way done!! (except for the ones i havent installed yet...)

yes - the green wire is the dimmer.
The only trouble I had with the red clock was seeing it the daytime - other than that it was nice and red.

Is it red as red? or pinkish/orangy/purply? If it is what material did you use? Its the combination of the green clock display and the red material that makes it not perfectly red.

i used a yellow divider tab and that made mine a nicer looking green. more like a neon green. it goes well because my light color choice is green

I used colored film paper and about 3 layers - canceled out the green totally - was Red red.

I am also doing my car in green lights check out my door panels. its hotwirz from streetglow.

Hey how did you get that little clock piece out?

um just kinda knocked it out with the handle side of a screwdriver i think. i actually dont really remember how i took it out, just like push it out or hit it out from the outside. see where i show the clock from the outside, try to knock it off from that side.
