Ah, you found the original. Yeah it's definitely a pain in the *** but the result looks brilliant. Someday, when I'm out of warranty, I'll give it a go.

I don't mind orange/amber lighting in general, but my Z is red, and orange is just a bad color combo.

I had another look last night and realized that most of the dash lights actually look quite red except for the fuel/temp gauge, which is pretty ugly anyway, and the Start button. Why would they do this? It's a terrible color combination. I'm not a fashion nazi but even a pretty basic dude would not wear orange shorts and a red shirt!!!

OK I'm niggling, but it's a fairly expensive car, and crap design like this would never fly on a German car. Even a Jetta. Then again, if the color of one or two gauges is my biggest problem, I'm doing pretty well.

Time to get that Red GT-R button ordered and at least take care of half the problem...
