yeah, i've heard of some paint stuff you put on them - glass paint maybe?
otherwise try the silicon sleeves, or fit LEDs in the place. if you find out what type of globe it is people usually sell LED version for cheap on eBay,.com.au |

if u wanna make it blue, dont even try.. if ya paint them they go a real light aqua kind of colour.. looks s**t
agreed with the sleeves.. look good for a few weeks.. then only alternative.. Narva blue LEDS! straight swap for the globe

My trip comp and clsuter use Narva led globes, the AC panel uses coloured condoms sleeves thingys. LED Globesa re blue the sleeves came out teal (suits the car though). How does one change the AC panel lights? |

they are just normal LED's - different sizes due to i just used ones lieing around!
there are normally two globes in there, so i just hooked up the led's to the positive of one of the globes wires and the negative of the other.. then the otherway round for the other leds! i just did as many as i could.. coz it has to go through a sorta yellowy white silicon chip thingo to get out... looks a little lighter in real life... but better than being white!
