Hey guys. I just wanted to share with you folks my recent upgrades on the 95 cobra. I did the LED light bulb swap for the gauge cluster and hvac controls, as seen in the how-to section. What a night and day difference. I can finally see clearly and the blue gives the cabin a whole different feel.
I treated the Cobra to a stereo upgrade as well and chose an Alpine deck, wired to the factory amp. :headbang:
I went a different route when I modified the dash clock. I removed the pod, disassembled the unit, and painted the actual clock display with a product called Krylon "Stained Glass Color" in blue, obviously. It's an aerosol spray can and I threw on about 5 coats. I found it at my local Michael's craft store and runs about $10 for the can. Well worth it IMO. The results speak for themselves. Also, I had to remove the factory "plastic tinted cover" and replaced it with a small piece of laminate for the colors to clearly display.
Hope this helps anyone in the future who plans to modify their clock. They also carry different colors that might be of some use for others. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics, but they get the job done.
