Are you gonna strip the red off? If so i used wet and dry 400 grit, then 800 grit then 1200 grit, in the lovers i used my dremmel with a thin brass wheel. Then finished off with autosol :D

Im thinking of getting 2 of these and fit them to the flat part of the central front interior light then plug the adapter in where the bulb normally goes :) have measured and they will fit great just need to join the wiring together.
