Subject: [Tigers] Faded red generator light

Hello all,
My career was almost solely in the A/V industry. In the early days, I worked for a company called Advent that used a substance called bulb dye to color and seal its tweeter domes. I was wondering if anybody tried bulb dye on their red generator/alternator light. Its position means that if the car is been in the sun, it gets faded pretty quickly. Any end all other solutions would be appreciated. And I can’t seem to figure out a good source for bulb dye. As red generator/alternator plastic lenses are uncommon, I don’t want to screw this up.

A red Sharpie Permanent marker works great.
Also, if nobody did it before, you can rotate the plastic to the backside
which will be like brand new.

Jim
	I believe I used a Red Sharpie on the Generator lens.    I think I used multiple applications to let the Red soak in.
