..What is with everyone wanting blue interior lighting?? It's the absolute HARDEST color on your eyes at night. Red is the easiest.

Changing the subject, What info/radio system system do you have in that factory location? Retro sound?

Everyone on here hates it but it serves my purpose. Its a dual with carplay ability. Full 7” screen.

This truck is not a daily driver, only a booze cruise down dirt roads & backroads. And hunting season camp truck. So i took the cluster plexi out, and did a little dremel work to some trim. It fits just have A little overlap on cluster side but no gauges or light alarms are behind it

I've also got a blue truck. Interior is blue, interior lighting is factory and turned down as dimly as possible. Try it some time and you will notice less eye strain, especially outside of town.

I have blue interior so over the weekend I installed ice blue leds in the gauges and hvac controls, what I wound up with is green gauges which matches the factory temp display perfectly but the hvac buttons are a perfect blue . In hindsight I wish I would have gone white with everything and probably will at some point. I'm just glad to be able to see all the buttons for once. Are the headlight and dimmer controls supposed to be lit . I also did LED headlights but thats a different thread.

The buttons on my HVAC controls haven't lit up in the 11 years I've owned the truck.
