They slip over the glass housing of the bulb itself in an effort to change the color. It's a pretty cheap way of doing a lame thing

When I switched my climate controls over to amber, I went to the dealer and bought the bulbs for the 99-00 SI climate controls. The bulbs were worthless for my car, but they had the orange rubbers that I slipped over my stock bulbs. I am happy with the results. The crappy part is that I had to spend $5.50 on some bulbs I will never use.

Do they have these for the actual cluster as well? Or is this just a part for the climate control?
