sort of just a curiousity thing..sort of an interest....

the STi dash glows red. it looks great i think... but what produces that light? what im really asking is can that color be changed without very expensive modifications? my gut instinct tells me you cant just easily change that.. but i figured i'd ask one of you guys. (this has to do with my price-list for the STi im looking to buy)

i believe the color comes from plastic inserts... i'm pretty sure i read in a couple places people going through and swapping them (except maybe for oem stereo). lot of work for minimal payoff, imo.

well if i end up getting hte planned aspen white STi i'd love to either have a white or blue dash.

I think it would be a lot of work, but if it's what you want, go for it! I'd get the dash from a wrecked STI to play with though.

while you're picking up that cluster, snag the 6MT for me.

thanks for the input.

my main goal behind it is...

aspen white STI, silver rims, cleared headlights, white dash, white gagues. white everywhere...i duno think of it as an automotive version of Utah

And pick Julian up the block.

right. ill get right on that. make an outing of it. while im at it i might as well rip out the the diff for schvin.. hell why stop there. ill rip out the back seat and make a small couch. having money is overrated.

how about headlights, rims, steering wheel, shift knob, TMIC, exhaust, fuel tank, bodywork, windows, seats, gagues, dash....you know what scratch that, anyone want the whole STi while im at it? oh...wait... i do.. sigh
