Ok - some may remember the issues I had with ambient lighting and the other half. T can't take coloured or flashing lights without having a seizure or at best a serious migraine and being unable to talk for hours.

I'm looking to get some flash drives for the car to have music on now that I've worked out how to convert everything to MP3. But, I now that most pen drives have flashing lights on them to show when the drive is being accessed - having that stuck between the passenger seats is a big no no.

    Was trying to find a nice green one for my new car and could not find one - I wonder if I could get a black one and paint it with nail varnish - or I guess a tin of touch up paint and spray paint it to match

    You should be able to get green insulation tape from one of the hardware stores...... B&Q, Boyes, Focus DIY etc.
