I need some stage gels (the film that goes over the lights, basically a sheet of thin colored plastic) Is there a store like that here in the MOV? Basically what im doing is changing all the ugly green lighting in my interior to match my new gauges.

Go to like CA House Music or something. Anywhere that sells crap for band's will prob have it. They have the stuff in squares to put over the stage lights.

Jay is right...

CA House had them the last time I was in there.

Third St. Music may also have them in Marietta as well.

My guess would be to change the color of the idiot lights and other things under the fuel/temp and tach that the indiglos don't change on the cluster.

oh, thats not done yet, well it is, but i screwed it up. The hvac controls i used too dark of a gel on them, so i gotta take it back apart and probably take a sharpie to it lol

I guess the controls are the same brightness as they were green, so it doesnt matter I guess. I never got to the clock, I would have to tear the entire dash apart just to get to it. It will probably wait till next time.

Before ( i did have a blown bulb in the controls)
