If you do go with the stick on film method, remember that the stock dials aren't the brightest at night when lit up and anything you put on top will obviously make them harder to see especially if its a darker color.
You would probably want to use white led bulbs* so the color of the dials is the same at night. You might get odd results with say, red film lit up with the standard green/yellow bulbs. *I'd recommend only using the inverted lens type which give off light in all directions like a regular bulb. -------------------- Facelift bumper-foglights-clear indicators, clear side repeaters, 16in O.Z alloys, stainless steel grill. JDM facelift tail lights. clear sidelights. Retro-fit A/C conversion. APEX performance springs. Remus exhaust. K&N performance filter. KYB excel G shocks.
Hyundai coupe Mk 3 (US Tiburon) leather seats. Gen 7 s/wheel. SR black vinyl door cards. Late spec spoiler-less tailgate with 3rd brake light. |
