At the risk of sounding like a retard .. . . WHAT THE HELL IS A SHARPIE?

We must be living on different planets :P I assume from the "colour it in" process it may be a "highlighter". Anyone who's crossed the continents help me out on this one? :lol:

I decided to use a Sharpie, and I just did the radio with an orange one. I have yet to see it in the dark, but it seemed pretty good. Just a question for xplod850, how did you get to the bulbs on the climate control/AC unit? And also, how did you color the trip computer thing red too?

I noticed that it is difficult to get an even spread of ink on the plastic, as it tends to bead up, just something to keep in mind.

the climate control is really simple. once you remove the Climate control unit, just unscrew the front face. once you do this flip the face over. there is a green film on the back. color in the parts that you want which ever colors you want. this is how i had more than one color. if you have anymore questions feel free to ask.... so dont color in the bulbs them selves. color in the film.it makes all the difference.
