looks good, but too much of a contrast for me, unless you plan on doing your headliner and some other things too.

i used krylon spray paint for plastic and then clear coat. i used the same on my plastic grille, no sanding or priming necessary it said, and the grille has been holding up just fine...prolly shoulda donde matte clear coat and matte black instead of gloss, but whatever

I attempted taking out the rear control box when i was putting LEDs in my maplights but it was halfassed and I backed of when i saw all the wiring. How hard is it to disconnect and reconnect?

well, i stripped everything out to paint it, and was afraid I'd forget how it all went, but it wasn't that much really. the hardest for me was pulling out that section of the controls, but I think I pulled it out from the wrong side of the box. and to take the map light housings out, you have to clip off those little mushroom looking plastic pieces that secure them. I had some tiny screws lying around from work to screw it back down after. Oh and take the box down from the ceiling, I think was just one screw on the end closest to the windshield.

but if your doing LEDs in the map lights, I haven't done it yet, but JK and a couple others have used this for the map lights http://www.ledlight.com/SearchResult.aspx?KeyWords=34556 and I assume they just plug in, no need to take the whole housing down and all apart. if I'm wrong, someone please correct me on that.

I've had the LED's in for like a year, and they're just plug and play with the 194 bulbs,

brndns_hoe · Jul 24, 2009

oh ok cool. i thought you were saying you went to put them in, but then backed out

Has anyone used the SEM paint for plastic. I tried it on my dash bezel. I used the scuff and clean, and the plastic adhesion promotor then the SEM paint. I followed directions to the t and I still had more flakes than kelloggs. Said F it and primered and painted
