Default I prefer the stock red

Less harsh in the eyes, less riceroni. "A" for effort though.

Now let me see, your calling Golf's rice?

I wanted my dash to be different just like my body mods but rice is a little harsh.

<center><img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y224/docurley/ACboard.jpg"></center><p>Ok there are two types of LED's that the Audi uses; the standard mushroom type and then the SMD/Axial type.

The AC needs the SMD type and just the display requires 15 LEDā€¼sup&gt;TM&lt;/sup&gt;s.

The unit also as red plastics sheet that diffuses the led light to give the smooth light. The actual info is produce in the glass at the front and the LED light shine through giving you the image so you could change this to any colour you like.
