Heres prolly the most important question in regards to painting all that interior plastic.....


What product did you use to treat the plastic ... before you could prime and paint those areas?

LED Lights, Bulbs & Accessories - SUPER BRIGHT LEDS. Awesome site and I believe now they let you look up your car to suggest the bulbs you need. I believe most the bulbs (in the mirror and under the dash) are 194.
