Roger,


Please keep us informed on your dash light modifications. I am
considering modifying the gauges with the white overlays then using a
color mylar to tint the display light. It would be nice to convert that
light to a brighter bulb. Heat would be a concern though but the color
glow would be cool and resemble that Passat dash you mentioned. Could
also change the color mylar as your mood changed :)
