Well, i 'm new to the thread (howdy) but I would take out all of those nasty orange condoms over the bulbs behind the dash, that color is hideous. I know that the bulbs in the center console don't have them, but behind the dash, I haven't got the slightest idea, I'm afriad to try and take it apart...i lost my chiltons.....

AHHH fresh meat! Well there is no orange condoms n e where in the car, to change the colors of the dash you need to remove alot of stuff and replace alot to make the dash all blue. Do a search with LED HVAC hondahater21 in the search and you will find a bunch of times I explaned this (Maybee admin should put all of it on the mods section?) Go to my site to see hoe to do the HVAC with pics and you dont need the dash out to do that. But with the dash out there is nothing you really can do but paint and clean, there is nothing underthere that you will ever need to get to

actually, the floor boards have some kinda yellow "condom" thing overthe bulbs on the sides. I took those off. Might have been orange. Can't remeber, but yellow, or orange. "condoms" none the less.
