I love it. The only areas that are not green are the dome light and the cubby light down near the shifter, those are white.

I like the green idea and wire it to your accelerator. This way when you rev it or run it it gets brighter. Hulk haha Car is getting angry!

or be different from cherry, and have BOTH colors lit up at the same time... blue and green at the same time, should get you a nice teal color. similar to the car. as long as they are RIGHT next to each other. |
