Can someone please post a write up or a link to how to do this? ive searched and nothing came out thanks!

 

ur better off just buying a type r one for 75 bux....

 

Why spend $75 when you could do this for 5-10 bucks? Check this out bro. http://www.geocities.com/mt3c/DIY_Amber_CC.html

 

thanks dude!

 

Instead of the "white teflon tape stuff" I used a white envelope and it turned out fine.

 

thanks for the info..where can i get those film? is it transparent tape?

 

or instead of possibly ruining your climate control (many people use too much nail polish remover and ruin their buttons) you could just pop the four bulbs out and paint the bulb. the first way is garunteed to last longer for sure, but there's a higher risk of ******* up. With painting the bulb you could always repaint them, or just do it right the first time. Just twist out the 4 bulbs (white circles) once you've removed the CC, and then there's a bulb on the defrost button in the form of a brown rubber rectangle, just pull it out, and paint that. Ta Da

 

never thought of that..thanks alot

 

I remember seeing a website that sells little rubber booties or condoms that fit over the light bulbs to turn them amber. I forgot which website though. If I remember I'll post it.

 

i didn't use any nail polish remover at all, afraid of ruining the buttons All i did was just use transparent film and place it over the white piece on the button. Still looks good, fooled my friends thinking it was a JDM climate control

god, i'd love to know that website. I searched for days before i finally decided to just paint them. We'll see how long it lasts.

 

Try replacement bulbs from a 99-00 Si. It had an Amber Dash and Console. Duh. They are like $1 a piece.

 

painting them sucks, tried it and they look pink, or they just burn the paint off.....depending on what paint you use. Use the transparent film, that's what I'm getting ready to do

 

anyone have some tips on how to get that strip out exactly?? With the numbers and the temp. control. He says how to do it in that write-up, but I can't seem to even budge it

 

Doesn't anyone sell replacement bulbs? Seems like it would be the easiest method.

 

not that I have found.....the bulbs are TINY. If anyone does find them let me know. I have heard of people using a custom LED setup, but no details on how.

 

http://www.superbrightleds.com has #74 LEDs. That's the climate control sized bulb. You can order the LEDs. My friend did for his EVO, but they don't disperse light that well. It's worth a shot i guess.

 

ive never seen these before..!! i could def. use some of these..





thanks b0b0o7o7

$1.19 to $1.79 EACH?!?!?! thats a ****** steal.. im getting some for my cluster.

 

works for the cluster.......but not small enough for the climate control. I even called that company and asked. if you can find some, or maybe they just started carrying them, let me know please

 

when you say not small enough are you talking about length? Don't use these for an integra guage cluster, buy their #194 bulbs and put those in the cluster, they're much bigger, and they're the same size as the stock bulb, the #74 bulb (in those pictures) is small, and is the same bulb size as what's found in the climate control. There's no reason why they shouldn't work in the climate control.

 

interesting..........I swear those are the bulbs I ordered and they were too big. Maybe they sent me the wrong ones. I dunno. Someone else please try it and tell us all the outcome

 

yea you only need 3 #194 bulbs for your cluster..they also make it in colored ones too @ autozone/shucks, i bought red but it turned amber

 

I cant believe they dont make amber bulbs for the climate control.
On my hatch I dod the testors paint method were you paint the bulbs and it worked real well.
What makes the ITR cluster amber?

They DO make amber bulbs for the cluster. I bought amber #194 bulbs at napa. It's the same bulb that goes in the front bumper lights on an integra, so all you need are amber ones, that were most likely intended for the bumper lights. They work and look great

 

Whoops sorry I will edit that, I ment climate control.
