Its a bit of both

The LED's for the digital screens use to be red but then the light passes through a yellow piece of plastic and then through the lcd screen creating the orange whereas the led's for the switches and around the clocks were orange led's. The yellow plastic is still in there at the moment creating the green effect until I can find a piece of thin white plastic to cut to size.

The Heater controls are slightly duller as the led light has to pass through quite thick translucent rubber which gives the buttons that springy feel. Something i'm thinking about to change

The main lcd display in the clocks isn't that bright in the car, that was a lot to do with night time pictures and reflection of the clear plastic screen in front of the clocks.

They do look better when sat in the car
