Default Red dash lighting...RIP?
I really miss the red lit numbers and gauges from my B5 S4. I searched and have found no helpful discussion but from way back on AW. I wonder if bulbs can be replaced or an aftermkt cluster installed to get the red into B6 S4. I recall BMW and other manuf's had Amber lighting and Audi models had the red for some time. It seems all utilize white entirely now. For me, this sucks. Any feedback greatly appreciated. If there is another B5 thing in this cat. that I miss, the steering wheel (like driving a little tank)

Default How did what happen? It sounds like he just wants to make the mph and rpm red instead of white.....
like the B5 had.
