red clock

i was wondering if there was any good way to change the clock to red? i was also wonedring what if we just get a clock from another car that has it red and put it into ours not the whole thing just connect it to the wireres already there and use the same plastic cover so that it doesnt look wierd? do you think its possible?

Visit my site.

I have red clock and red everything.

how did you do that?

I 2nd that.......How ?????

ya i would like to know how u did that too. if my mind serves me right didnt u post before that u werent completely happy with it because it looked pink. well any ways i was still wondering if my first idea of finding a car with a red clock would fit in ours. if anyone knows any car with a truely red clock let me know thanks.

he pulled the cover off and got a peice of plastic, painted it red with transparent spray tint, then inserted the red peice inbetween the cover and the clock. The clock actually lights up a light baby blue color, but the cover has a yellow tint to it. And we all know from the ziploc comercials that.....

"yellow and blue make greeeeeeen!".

BUT


If you add red into it the red will make it red, before it can trun green. That is wy red is one of the ONLY colors you can change the stock clock with out very many problems.

Yeah that's how I did it.

so if i wanted it blue, what can be done to the cover to remove the yellow tint?

what kind of spray paint and what type of plastic any plastic hard, soft or what it would really help thanks

making it blue is next to impossible. You would need access to a sheet of plastic that you could mold a new cover out of. If it was clear then the clock would be the baby blue color. BUt that yellow green cover is that ENTIRE peice.


To make it red, jut go to Walmart, go to the paint section and look at the spray tint. They have the following colors

red, green, blue, orange, yellow, purple, and I think a couple others. It dries semi transparent.

Tha plastic you use is up to you. SOmthing that is about as thick as plastic containers for some products would be good. You just dont want it to be thin like saran wrap or something. If you really wanted to you could just paint the inside of the cover with the red stuff, But you could never reverse it.

The easiest way is getting any type of red vinyl and just put on top of the green LED clock.

This is the one I used.
