I now have a nice 'ice blue' interior when the doors open. the bulb does get hot but this is ok for the paitnt I got.

I just went to a local arts and crafts shop and they sorted me out.


does the light still light up bright enuff to see inside the car or is it dull now?

Want to change the colour off the interior light to a blue colour output, wonder whats best ?? these blue bulbs the car accessory shops sell or maybe even use that special bulb paint, any recommendations for best results ??

cheers,
john...:)
