What paint are you using? and does it stick well?

I love the black interior in the NBS trucks. I wish my interior was all black...grey is better than blue or red though lol

I also snapped a picture of the back of the Hvac unit (i already did this mod but for refrence) those black tabs you see in the back are your bulbs i cant remember what the part number is from Superbright LED but there is a thread on them but you can swap in your LEDs there this is for any of you who have questions regarding where they are and all they are is twist outs FYI
