Default Don't be mad dickball -

but I borrowed your name - using it over at electrotank.com to play games. It's just such a great one.

Default Hehe..funny. I did that to my '97 18 months ago too...dome and maps in back.

Looks sweet when they slowly come up to full power when you unlock the car or open a door. I played around quite a bit with the resistor in front to get it just right for nighttime driving.

Default Cool. I just finished mine last night, too.

Just used red film and cut the pieces to fit as necessary. Great color. Matches the rest of the dash. I just have to do the footwell lights, now.

By the way, how did you do the main dome lights? I very carefully cut out a piece of the red film to perfectly match the main dome light cover. Although it wasn't so perfect. So I get a little bleed around the edges.
