Somewhere has to have them… need them to modify the color of my HVAC controls so that they are not the only green thing in my dash.

ive got red condoms on my gauge lights

if they are the same bulb as in the autometer lights, you can buy actual led bulbs for the same socket. i have blue ones right from autometer. worked great.

I actually want to do this for the amber HVAC lights in my car too, i saw an eclipse with blue LEDs installed, i’ve taken apart my panel before, and it looks like theres enough space to cut the old LEDs and solder a new one in. Idk if thats the case with the STI, but it would be pretty easy, and you wouldnt have to worry about the condoms burning through and having to replace them.
