Non Focus discussion. Pretty much other cars and off topic stuff.

Is there any way to change the color the gauges, and hvac controls light up to a blue instead of a green?

Don't you have an SVT? Little different to change the color on that cluster....

Try Speedhut, I think they make an overlay for the SVT...

You can buy an overlay but its like 100 bucks! And I'd like my HVAC controls to match.

I did the color change on all my cars if you do search for me on here you should be able to find pics. I had blue in my blue hatch, red in my Kona, and white in my wagon

I'm about half way through switching mine to red. Be warned that you will need to have a bit of soldering expirience and to ake things apart and look at them before you order a bunch of parts mine was a little different than the FJ forums.
