dashboard light change.. need help!!

[steffenaj14]

alright so i have the stock red dashboard lights and i painted the seats blue, shift nob blue, steering wheel blue, and parts of the dash blue. the red dashboard lights really stand out and i think that if it was possible it would be a really nice upgrade to change the lights on the speedometer and rpm and all that to blue. does anyone know how to get to the bulbs so i can change them??

help's greatly appreciated. i'll have some pics on here soon of my interior to give you a look! thanks

you have to take out the cluster but the gauges are still that red color. the lights have a rubber cover on them but that just dims them a bit. i took those covers off and it just changed it from a red to more of a creamy orange.

If you're changing the lights, I think the bulb codes are 194 and 74... and i'm pretty sure you need 2 of each.

My bulbs are extremely dim and I will probably have to do this too.

If we want blue gauges with red needles, what bulbs would we need of each ?

since our guages are red/orange backed to begin with youd have to do a whole bunch of stuff. blue bulbs would just make the guages a dark purple that you wouldent even be able to see at night prolly..

you need some diffusers or something, spots on your guages are wayyy brighter than others... (enguard)
