Default Completed Green LED interior mod
I finally completed changing out the lights in my interior over to green LEDs. Here's some pics. I'm not a photographer by no means, LOL. Thanks to Infinitereality, Brain2006, Whitebird00, Krazzymike and others that have helped me through this part of the modding project.

Keliente the link from you site was extremely helpful. I decided to do green since the majority has done blue. I just had to be different.

that looks pretty good man! get some night shots! I've always thought green would be a cool color for the interior with LEDs. I just decided to never use it because I had a Red car lol.

The project was divided over a couple of weeks due to work and ordering LEDs. I did green since the majority of the LEDs have been blue or superwhite. I hate read interior and green is easier on my eyes. I took the shots early this morning in the garage, still need have a friend help with the photography part. The camera flash kills the lighting effect. When not using the flash, slight movement is noticed, even using a tripod. Those shots were coming out like a good drunk or something from a 60s LSD trips.

nice work, I did the same with my Black 02' SS. I think the green is a great color and kind of spooky.
