Default Red Light District!!!!

So apparently I don't know how to read and kinda made an OOPPPPS. I ordered lamp covers to change the radio to red from parts express, not reading how many come in a baggie. I just did the quick math and figured I'd get 10 for mistakes and what not. To my surprise they sell them 8 per bag. So now instead of 10 I have 80. Needless to say I don't need this many rubbers for my lamps .

I have 7 bags of 10 lamp covers in .2'' size and .12'' size. Let me know if you need them. All 80 cost me like 15.00 (realized what mistake after the order went through) so I guess I'll sell you the bags for like a buck I guess . . . whatever. . . let me know if you need them

Just figured I'd help people out.

Also it's really easy to do this. . . . there is a great write up and it looks so much better at night.

Thanks
- Bagger

These covers do the following;

Key Ring, Lighter Ring, and radio. The installation is covered in here under the how to's in "Lighting". It's pretty easy, I'd say a 2 on the difficulty scale.

PM me if you'd like a bag or two.

These will be of no service to you seeing how SUBARU got their heads out of their ***es and made all the interior lights red. It only took them 4 years, maybe we'll have recaros by 2012!!

Are the rubbers the same size for both the key ring and lighter ring? If so, Ill take a bag. I dont need any for the radio.

well use a small one and then a larger one for both setups....its better to use two becasue it will turn out more red.....you don't really want pink...

you can also do a custom headlight leveling switch....just take the switch apart and glue a cover over the existing bulb....it won't be too bright but at least its red....

for you guys with the 06-07 stis....i'm not sure for 06 but for 07 the key ring is really really difficult to do....you can't take it off like it says in the forums....u have to unscrew the bulb, put the cover on and put the bulb back in...sounds easy but u can bearly get your fingers in there to get the bulb out.....the reason is:subaru decided to put a screw on the keyring for i know deff the 07 year and its impossible to get to the screw.....

if you have the 04 and lower HVAC...possible even 06-07 that went with the 04 and low HVAC....you can bulb cover those as well....theres wirte ups about it....don't know exactly how to do that one b/c i have an 05 and did custom red LEDs.....

if u know how to do LEDs...do you window switches....just drill...place an led where it would shine through the button (yes all the switches can light up)....then add a resistor and connect to the window switch harness

^ thanks, theres a bunch of write ups on this so search is your friends. Also i'm only selling these because i was a moron and ordered an ass load of them soooo do this on your own I can only guide you as much as I've read on the DIY threads . . .

Also the IC switch and HL adjusters I haven't done but there is a write up. Some use nail polish remover to get the green off and then sub in a red film or paint to get it to be brighter. . .
