I stand corrected. I saw a picture of the o8 dash and it looked amber. I guess orange isn't to far off.

thanks for the responses. I thought I had heard that there was a new color. Does anyone have a shot of the radio or climate control area? I kinda like the new color compared to the greeny/amber color of the pre-08's

Yeah the 07 back has a yellow green amber look and the 08 is straight orange..........no amber at all........much nicer..........

I did orange LEDs and Cathodes under hood and interior and it glows like lava........looks pretty cool............

Next is my under body and wheel wells in orange..........jsut waiting for the rain to stop..........too poor for a garage this year............

I did just get my dome lights at Oznium and they are bright as bright can be............whole interior glows bright orange with just them on.........LOL.

interesting. in darkphoenix's pic, it appears that the light for the little storage area is now colored to match the other lights. I am pretty sure the early ones have just a normal light bulb back there. Am i correct?

the older ones were just as is... whereas you are correct.

they color matched it on the 2008 by adding a rubber color condom over the bulb.
