Default Interior lighting question (searched)

ok, its for a 97 civic ex coupe...

i have an Si guage cluster, and i would like my climate control lights to match the cluster bulbs...

i need 2 bulbs, that are the same size (obviously) as the bulbs that fit behind my climate control...

all the honda dealerships around here don't have any Si bulbs, so im thinking that 01+ civics have amber interior and might do the trick? what do you guys think/ what could i use to substitute? any OEM amber interior bulb will work from any car as long as its the same size... thanks!

You could just paint your bulbs you have amber color.

Search for amber dash write-up or something similar to that. There's a complete write-up on here of it.

I would go with LED's...colored bulbs work for like a month, then the color goes back to the original color that you have now, and painting the bulbs also fades after a given time...LED's dont lose their color....i replaced all my lights in my car(cluster, climate control, dome light) with LED's and haven't had any problems with them, just find your bulb size(Instrument-General #): http://www.sylvania.com/Consum...t.htm

and then go to

http://www.superbrightleds.com...=LEDS

type in your # and your set...
