Painted Dome Light
 
2 Attachment(s)
I was bored and wanted to mod something, but couldn't find a good Mustang/Taurus dome in the local boneyard. So, I just masked where the light comes through my stocker and painted it. I think it looks pretty good.

Here it is lit up (I didn't do individual pics for the map lights, you get the idea):

Sorry. Good work. But I think I would just buy a new dome light now.

Umm... not going to trash you and say it looks terrible but i wouldnt have done that. But thats just my opinion.

x3. It dose not look that good. But if your happy with it then go for it. You can find Mustang dome lights and Explorer ones on ebay for around $20.

lol, It's cool, I was bored like I said and wanted to try something (slim pickings in the local JY at the moment, and I hate ebay). It will suffice until the Mustang dome I want materializes.

should have pulled the lens,taped off bulb reflectors and paint the rest

Looks like you drew on it with a sharpie marker, lol but if YOU like it thats all that matters.

LOL, I was going to go with the disco light, but I was afraid a stray beam of light would bounce of my gold chains and blind oncoming traffic.

Easy guys. This is what true modding is all about. He didn't go the easy route and buy one ready to install. He looked at the existing light and tried to make his own.

It looks like a Mexican wrestler mask......LOL

I don't like it. I think using nightshade would have been better. Has anyone done that to the interior lights?
