So being finished work and all i got bored so i decided to do a write up on this.Here goes
You start with this:
Remove your heater control cable.I broke my clips you'll see what i did further down the page.
It is hard to make out but this is one of the 3 screws that hold the climate control into place.
Here 2 of the 3 bolts
Here is the 3rd
Now unplug your harness 1 plug in out of 2
Here is the 2nd ...Once you remove the climate controls, you will be left with this.Here you can see the two tabs bottom left and right corner of the top "din" which hold the controls into place.
Next! Go to walmart and pick up some page dividers.I went with amber
Now you can start hauling apart the climate control.Either to replace a blown bulb or to change color what ever it may be!
You will be left with this
Next i removed the two bulbs(one was blown) and then i installed new ones with no blue condom.
Old ones
Then i got the orange page divider out cut a pice to the size i needed then folded it 3 times.So practically 6 layers gives you the desired color which looks GREAT! Just poke it into place and put it back together
This one is only folded 4 times.I added another peice after
Once you get the page divider in or your new bulbs.Even leds just put it back together and re install
Back to what i stated above earlier. I cracked the clips that hold my heater cable in place. Quick fix with 2 screws i had laying around
This car was a dx.It didnt have ac.If your car has ac be careful.You may end up breaking both
The purpose of this thread is not to show people jdm jdm jdm. I have a jdm cluster and nothing else was amber so this was needed.
I also used an acura el lense to amber my clock(direct fit).Then for my rear defrost and cruise switch i used an orange tic tac case removed the cover and cut out a sqaure to fit into the cover.It is hard to explain but once you get at it,it will make sense.
You dont have to go the page divider route but i am rocking it on both my cars now.You can go with leds,or different color condoms( i call em anyways lol)
