Red face STI MY04 dash illumination, green with envy!

Is the green illumination standard on all STI 04 cars? I could have sworn that I have seen red dials on most of the interior pics that can be found on the web and they do some sort of testing sweep when the ignition is turned on. Doe's anyone have these as standard!? Green sucks!

The illuminated red dials you see are on the JDM car only, I believe.

Mines not quite as posh as that (it has the rev thing and temp that mine doesnt), though the colour and fuel gauges look similar (i swear its faulty )

What do you have then, Tony? Those clocks are from the '05 JDM STI, and I think the '04 (and maybe some earlier cars) is the same.

Japanese cars have a 112mph speed limiter fitted as standard. (How many of them remain fitted past the first service I don't know, mind )

The Spec C ones are a bit sparser but still functional (who needs all that extra weight anyway )
I still get the illumination dial to change the brightness

Tony

PS, 180kmh = 112.something MPH, and most dont have the restriction on for long when they get over here
