New Member & a Question??

[VibeGurl]

Hello all,New to the group here I pick up my baby tonite , a 2003 Vibe.....I love the vehicle overall for as many times as I made the dealer let me test drive it LOL the only thing I was wondering is if you can change the color of the gauges ((speedometer etcc)) from red to possibly blue or something easier for me to see?? I didnt know whether to post that question here or in the Electronic Mods cuz I dont know wheter it is electronic or just a cover/film in front of lights or something to make em red....Any help would be appreciated and I look forward to much chatting about my new Vibe Thanks!!Colleen

It's not the easiest thing to do on this car, but it is doable. I had my 02 Civic all switched out to Blue but they offered kits for the car. I actually got the car partly because the guages were red/white. Love the look. The 03 is a little different as it is all red. Here is the 05+P.S.-I wish it was 67 degrees again!Civic w/ Burnt Orange GaugesPost Surgery Blue/Red

Thanks Everybody Yep the gauges are all red in the 03 im getting. it was hard to see during the daytime, but at night it was okay......I can do a switch by myself if I could find a kit or if its just a red film peel it off....or find a different "vinyl" for changing the color..... I really dont want to pay someone else to do it LOLI know we do gauge cluster mods on our imports that we have (integra and civic) so I was hoping it was easy to do on the new Vibe baby

I'm pretty sure the Vibe/Trix uses LED lighting behind the gauges unlike the typical #24 mini bulbs. So if you search around here you can get some info. I would assume the gauges have the film over them as well to help with the light.
