Replacement interior lights?

[ZeeKay]

Not sure if they're fully integrated vs being 'bulbs', but the 26 A-Spec Tech I just got has pretty harsh interior lights imo. They're probably around 5500k and I wondered if anyone swapped them out with something a touch warmer.

i barely use mine but was debating about popping the covers off to see what options there are too...

You could put a film in between and it should tone down the lighting a little. Cut up some gel filters that they use for cameras and stick them in between the light diffuser/cover

I went with orange.

That's pretty good. Gels was a thought I had yeah, I was also mostly referring to the map/dome lights but your car is really cool with the orange ambiant lights.

Ah I get what you mean now. I never really though about those lights because I always have them on briefly but I agree they are a little harsh. Maybe a gel filter or tail light tape in the lens housing itself? That would throw off the interior look a little bit though, especially if you're particular about that kind of thing (I know it would drive ME nuts).

They do make "candlelight" gels, and I'm sure you could stack them with neutral dimming gels.

Probably together they'd do a great job.

I like the orange result above. Much nicer than the red imo. I'd get ocd and want to do every single interior light in it though, .
