Iv gota 98 polo, just wondering has anyone managed to change the colour on the heater control from green?Iv just managed to do the elec window buttons changed from green to blue.
I took it apart and its not just the case of changing the bulb colour. The green filliment is attatched to the pictures of the little people you see. I tried to spereate with a scaple but had no luck. Seems it one piece.
Any one achieved this or got any suggestions?
Cheers
Phil

the heater controls are by far the worse bit to change...id much rather do the dials!

everything else is pretty straight forward
