hay guys

I have some friends at Tracken Motion working on finding light condoms for my xb's AC/Dash area.

I need to find the part number or at leats the company name and condom size

I don't know the part number, but autozone has tons of them, for about a dollar. Thats where i got mine and it fits perfect.

 

man the autozones here in miami have none!!

Be prepared, this mod does not work well.

 

it works fine, its looks good. and the size of the condom thing is 194. its made by pilot sports or sumthing like that. Nunspa. u should try the autozone on
miller and 92nd ave.

 

The 194 bulb condoms aren't the same size as the bulbs, but they'll do the job. The bulb condoms that'll fit correctly seem to be only available in Japan (Netz Toyota)...

 

thats y you have to remove that white plate thing behind the dash and put the condoms in the holes. they fit nicely in the holes.

 

i got mines at walmart. it came with 2 blue 2 red and 2 green for a dollar or two

 

Well, my experience is that these COVERS actually make the lights dimmer. If you use blue it will turn green, red shines pinkish. I personally have done this mod and found that the original light is much better even though it doesn't match. Personally, I really don't recommend it. But that's just my opinion. I'm picky when it comes to having the lights be bright enough in my car. As far as the true bulb covers go, I would imagine they're better, never tried them.

 

The red ones are fine, i used APC red ones (yeah, that's the only APC product you'll find on my car) from pep boys. They were like $2.50.

 

.75 cents for me

 

I used a red sharpie and works fine. Its red not pink. The lights don't get that hot so the ink won't burn off like the dome light did. I used a red condom from autozone, works great.

 

I agree with ScionXBNY in some level....

I also did this mod trying to get mine to match my Blue Cathode Lighting and like he said instead of being blue it looks green. As far as being not bright enough I think that is in one's taste..I like them just fine...even though they dont match the interior color...

Just my 2 cents! :D

 

I wounder is there enough room to put additional LEDs behind the panel? if you make the lights go that funky blue/green color and also add blue LEDs, i may work out

 

Dude I give up! man zip by and see if they have any there and pick me up a packet! I will pay you back.. besides this weekend I'm going to cover your SEvo Membership fee so you have to pick up the cash from me anyways :oP

That's what I'm sayin' !
