I am frantically looking for an Amber lens. Now that I am beginning my install, I just realized that my entire RX7 dash is Amber.

Greetings!

Unfortunately, the official lenses are sold out and the store is closed. You can try to get one from someone on the board, but they are also available from Dark Storm Designs. Click on the Lenses option in the header to view what is available.

Thank You.

...for the info. I realize the store is closed and IMHO the Dark Storm lens look goofy.

Greetings!

Not a problem. Unfortunately, the only other sources are people looking to sell parts from the lens sets. You might be able to trade with someone on the board, but amber is a popular color so a bit of luck would need to be involved.

Also remember to check the riocar.org site for Tony's pictures of the faceplates in action. IMO the "red" faceplate is orange, and "amber" should have been called yellow.

Erm.. goofy? They look just like any other lens but with more colours available.

Maybe you were thinking of the Neon variety - I have a green neon fitted to my player and love it (at night anyway) but it's not the most practical of choices.

Don't knock the Dark Storm lenses. They're good stuff! I think they're better than the stock lenses....
