View Full Version : xB to xA compartment conversion
Opr8r 12-29-2003, 01:10 AM This is a crazy mod that Teddy and I worked on last night. We stopped by Home Depot and picked up a Dremel and some Lexan. The LEDs that were in the compartment were removed and replaced with a 4" Blue Cold Cathode. Major props to Teddy for kickin' ___! :D
Here's a side by side shot with/without lighting.

2fixA 12-29-2003, 03:11 AM damn that looks bad ___!!! so there's enough room back there for a cold cathode?? need to look into a color wheel cold cathode then for whoever likes to change up, otherwise that blue looks sweet. Nice work guys!

TheRedBox 12-30-2003, 09:23 PM DOPE!! We definently need to hook up on the neons. What paint did you decide on for the interior?

Thanks man. I was using SEM until I got a whole replacement center console in white. (Drove down to LA to get it). I do plan on doing the door panels in white... end hopefully the whole dash as well!
BTW.. your xB is looking sick! :shock:
Peace,

TheRedBox 12-30-2003, 11:24 PM word on the street is that you will have some DEEP dish rims soon...

THAT'S SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hmm, I think I'd like to something similar to that. except used the dremel to hog out the "bB", then put translucent-white lexan behind that, and light it.
See what you guys started!
