Change dash light color??? Help

[YotaMaster]

Hey everyone,
I recently installed a White Face Gauge kit and I want to chang the other lights like for the AC and suck to blue. Any idea if it is just colored bulbs back there or is there a way I can do it. Any info would be helpfull.

www.speedhut.com sells HVAC controls that light up like their whiteface guages do

I have the cluster done and I really don't want to go to a white faced AC cover, I just want to change that green color to a blue. Maybe a colored bulb?

Colored bulb will always give you a greenish color, because the standards bulbs are not white light.
Only blue LEDs will give you what you want

I just replaced all the bulbs with Blue LEDs (with a resistor in series). Blue LEDS cost about $2.50 each at Radio Shack... so that's a cheap mod !

thats not bad at all...id have to go w/ red to match the exterrior, but your gauges look sweet. do you have the factory gauge face or did you buy aftermarket? and is the install all screw in or what?

I have the Saleen factory gauges and just added the pillar with fuel pressure and A/F ratio...

Also I added the aftermarket rear view mirror, with auto-diming feature, external temperature and compass. Sweet one, that shoulod be standard on every car!

where did you buy the mirror from? I called one place a long time ago and they said it wouldnt fit in a vert...

Donnelly! Sorry I don't remember if I ordered directly from them or via a distributor, that was 2 years ago...

Any chance of getting a step by step of this mod?
Or at least an idea how it needs to get done?

This may sound stupid, but where does the resistor go?

 

[Q's Stang]

putting a resistor in series like hooking wires up for car stereos (series/parallel)? and like mcmmotorsports, do you have a step by step?

 

[stang976]

yea your gauges look absolutley gorgeous. a LED change 101 would be sweet
