Wow, looks great. Is that color close to real environment?

what do you mean? the coloring in the pic is how it looks in real life. my clock is "blue" but not as blue as the climate or gauges. my drivers window switch is a blue led. thats all i really have blue if thats what you mean by envornment.

i didnt really have a choice on the red kph. i put some blue LEDs in the climate and some blue bulbs for the needles and nubers on the gauges. its a little too dim for my liking though.

nice Rocky!

which approach did you take for the climate control general illumination?
(paint the backs of the buttons?, solder in leds w/resistors?, something else?)

edit
oh never mind, just read your thread about it.
still, nice work!!

I meant as to whether or not the picture was real looking - or it looks diffferent in "real life," thats all
