Generally when you quote someone, that means your responding to them.

I quoted SilverGPX, I was talking to SilverGPX.

Sorry about the mis-lead there 8).

What exact paints did you use on the engine bay because I've searched bunnings and supercheap auto but none seem to have an anodised blue spray paint or a bright silver one.

if you want to use the blue you have to give it a coat of silver first
and i had a lot of trouble painting any of the whit plastics blue aswell i found i had to spray it with the cheap black first then a couple of coates of the silver then when you did the blue you would have to keep respraying blue every 10 mins tell it stoped turning like a powdery blue colour it well look quit bad after it stops looking powdery like it isnt sparkly at all till it drys unlike anything else that you do blue

And you need 1 of these for the key ring light 1 for the cigarette lighter light you can use 1 for the ashtray light but it doesn't really light up that much you have to bend it a little though so the light points up into the ashtray and then you need 2 for the clock but you need to pull the led out the casing and put it into the bulb holder and you need to do the same thing for the ac panel you need 2 for the buttons and 2 for the display if you want to change the display bulbs so that makes 9 of them you need
