No. Only because I'm old enough to know what it means.

YES!
Red light helps to preserve your night vision. How did you do it?

I have done it, you just take the dome light out and replace it with an LED panel. Takes 5 minutes, maybe 10.
I only have mine on the door setting though so it isn't on while driving. Also my car has now been nicknamed the Brothel by my uncle for that exact reason... so yeah... :P

Yep, just replaced the dome light with red LEDs. I have it set to door so when I get close to the car it lights up red. I wouldn't want it on while I drive. I'm debating between this and white lights

Thanks for suggesting us.
Red is tough. If it's not for you we would love to swap them out for white. Just let me know. |

Ha well it won't be of much use as I am in Australia but just went to Autobarn (Local car bit shop, specialises in a fair bit of cosmetic and audio stuff though) and they had dome light kits.
Was $20AUD so should be around that for you guys I would imagine. Can risk ebay but you can get stooged easily.
