Yesterday while doing my shift light I decided to paint my steering column. This was done with Red Metalkast. What do you think?

it's very red... as I can see are the surrounds for your gages.. so it might not look out of place too much... question though, why did you half hide your shift light and do you hit it when twirling the wheel?

Nope, it doesn't hit. It looked very out of place on top of the dash, and where it is now works perfect. The light is still very visible while you are driving.

When I read the topic, I grimmaced a little, but it actually looks pretty good. smile.gif

Looks great with the silver dash.

I think you just changed my mind on a few things.

How hard to get them off?
