No, the white offsets the black beautifully but the mix in of the blue is what throws it off.

That would be SWEET! do u know how to wire them up like that and have a swith that i could just flip on when i wanted them on?
Here is a link on how to wire up to your dome light, sort of.

As for the double wiring, I don't think that is possible. Because if I am thinking right when you turned the switch on for the lights to come on, it would route power to your dome also and try to turn it on too. Weather or not the light would have enough power to turn on or have too much power and blow the bulb is a different question.

I actually think I thought of a way to do it, but it is such a waste it is not even worth doing it, and it is also taking a chance that you remember to turn switches on and off in the correct order or you could have a problem on your hands.

u really have to see it in person....its not like it is white spray paint from a rattle can....

i paint cars for a living....those pieces on the door were sanded smooth and painted with 3-stage automotive paint. It's a white pearl metallic. It has 3 different kinds of pearl, white pearl, small white pearl, and small blue pearl. In the sun it is just beautiful.

sooooo...I wouldnt call it cheap....everything i do is a high quality job....and i think it goes well with the console

blurry


thanks

i dint mean the paint quality, soory for that im sure that it looks good, i just think that having them black instead of white would have hid them a little better, or if you kept them whete to do the insert in white velvet instead, but either way its your choisce and as along as you like it thats all that matters, right?
