then install one
but
remember to add the hack to prevent the BLACK default text on a BLACK text box
in a text file
/home/YourUserName/.mozilla/firefox/????????.default/chrome/userContent.css
use google to find "userContent.css"
for the black theme hack

If you want only Firefox to use a separate theme from the rest of your desktop, start Firefox like this:
Code:
bash -c 'GTK2_RC_FILES=/path/to/some/gtkrc/theme/file firefox

Dark Theme :
Firefox >> Tools >> Add-ons
.. And Search for `theme´, and select / install "Metal Lion Australis Theme"
Or get it from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/fir...stralis-theme/

On my Debian system, it seems that the scroll bar on the right is controlled by my GTK+ settings. So you may want to look into that.
