Gauge Lighting *Updated!*, (Modifying Appearance) Options

[Pulse_of_Enigma]

*Update*

Hmm.. The only things as far as WannabeGT4's are I'm looking for a much brighter light. And as far as color, I don't want it to be quite that blue, I want more of a bluish white, like what CelicaZR's looks like.


?So with those preferances I must ask... for a bright bright blueish white look, should I go with bulbs or LEDs?

?AND also is there anything I should or could do to the gauge panel itself to make the light shine through brighter and non-yellowish?


-Old-

Alright, so I was planning on making my Gauge with the speedometer etc look better by putting in some new bulbs. I got White 194 LEDs but they didn't work (still don't know why). So then I returned them and got white Xenon 194 (clear blue colored bulb) bulbs.

Anywho, they were installed and work, but my numbers and whatnot on my gauge are still that ****ty yellowish color.. I'm going for a bright crisp white or bright crisp blue...



That's pretty much it right there, it's a tiny bit brighter in person...

My question is, what should I do to get the effec I'm looking for? Differen't bulbs? Or perhaps keep the ones I just got and do some sort of painting or something?

Any ideas and suggestions would be great, thank you.
