I put the LEDs in, and 9 LEDs is a lot and about as bright as the Sun.

So we're getting some spray tint and tinting them... lol. I did it once and forgot to clean them off, so we had to sand, use brake cleaner, then sand smooth again.

Just have to wait until I can get some daylight and spray them proper.

Sounds like a lot of work. I bet a vinyl overlay might work in a pinch.

I bought some 9 LED panels years ago for our old Accord. Waaaaaaayyy too bright for my liking. They're still around here somewhere
