70'sChevyGirl Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I was curious as to whether or not the color of the dash lights makes a difference or not when you purchase a new vehicle?? I'm not that picky but I do like the blue and red dash lights. Any thoughts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjwvette Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Not for me,but I do like the orange glow ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich427 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Not for me either! Style, power, and handling sells the car to me. Not the dash lights. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Adam's Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Does for me. Pink dash lights would be a no no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I actually never gave it any thought. Interesting question Teresa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marylander Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I really like the white and red in my Audi, but I don't think it would have been a deal-breaker either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerryC Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I'd prefer it if they at least complimented either the exterior or interior color. Some cars now let you change between red, orange, green, blue, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3gInOc Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 it makes a difference to me. you have to look at. i hate orange dash lights. if it really bugged me, i would just change them out to get the look i wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70'sChevyGirl Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 if it really bugged me, i would just change them out to get the look i wanted. Wonder how Hot Pink would look on the dash of my Vette...:willy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 I've always liked the red for some reason but it's not a deal breaker if the car doesn't have them. The dark blue (almost purple) lights VW has/had are also awesome IMO. My G8GT has red. LOVE THEM! #1 is cost #2 is looks (interior and exterior) #3 is power #4 is options The G8 gave me everything I needed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill-V8V Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Mustangs let you change between several different colors. Not sure if it is just in the Premium model or not. I liked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitelord Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Doesn't make a difference to me. I changed my Dodge over to Blue. I don't recall what it was before that. My memory is failing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babyfer Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 when i was looking at new cars.. i was hoping to get a BMW.. they were fun and in my price range at the time, i test drove a few, then while on the BMW lot.. i saw an Acura TL.. got inside, LOVED the dash lights.. from then on.. i couldn't stand the BMW's and i had to get a new TL so yes.. i don't wanna look at ugly stuff in front of me unless i HAVE to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzdimond Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Turned down a car because of red dash lights. Can't stand them. Blue or green for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Nope... EVERYTHING can be changed... My old car, had all red lights, neons, etc... the dash was green, so I ripped it apart and made it all red to match.. This truck OEM dash is green, and just so happens that I went with green for all the LED's and such. Thats the only thing that matters to me. I don't care what I buy a vehicle for, it gets messed with and changed anyways... Hell, I bought a truck because I wanted a truck to use as a truck... Now if I need to haul something, I grab the El Camino... LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potent44 Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Actually, from a nerdy, scientific standpoint....red and orange dash lights give you better night vision..Or should I say don't disturb your night vision as much. I am a light fanatic...although, it wouldn't affect my choice in buying a vehicle. I mean, if a Vette, Ferrari or Porsche has rainbow lights and I have the money.....I am buying the car. This is my first day on the postings and I have noticed some BEAUTIFUL vettes! Matt 2008 GMC Sierra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired_CPO Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 right now my Neon has green lights..but soon enough everything will be blue to match the new gauges I bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potent44 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Wouldn't that be cool?!?!?!? One of the best features that I have seen was in the latest body style of the Mustang was the adjustable interior dash lighting. Whatever shade you are in the mood for...the Mustang lights will cater to. I am easy to please apparently! Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRQuarto Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 It does for me, I actually am not a fan of the green backlighting on my interior, and one of these days I will switch them over to blue LED's, but it is a royal pain.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
