Multicolored factory gauges? Options

[bdog_v]

Hello I am trying to add some color to my 94 celica gt factory dash lights for the speedo, tach. I have already converted the dash light to blue LED's these helped alot but I want some color possilbly

-keeping the blue numbers and getting some red needles or putting a red LED in the dash just for the needles.

1.The problem is how to accomplish this? YOu can't just change the bulb for the needles to red as they also light up the numbers around the gauges correct? It has been a few years since I swapped the lights.
-I was thinking of accomplishing this buy using this companies http://www.speedhut.com/custom_gauge_dial_...o_number-44.htm custom gauge overlays as the are
(self lighted) then I could get them with blue lighting for the numbers and simply change the dash light to a red LED for the needles. Has anyone done this?



2. Then I would also like to get the rpm redline to light up red and possibly some sort of red glow around the speedometer and tachometer. I am not sure how to do this?





3. Also I will be keeping a black faced background (I don't want to go to the white reverse glow style face) PLus I have doggys I believe gauge seperator that lays ontop of the factory gauges and seperates them.




4. Does anyone have any pics? Or where should I buy some red Led's that will fit in the dash? Thanks.....

I have a kit from SpeedHut on the way - custom design, but I'll be sure to post them up once they're installed.

I'll also be swapping out my BLUE LED's in the gauge cluster, for RED ones.

http://www.autolumination.com/ - is where I buy all my interior LED's from.

Just a heads up - I have the red 5 way ones from Culpable and I've had several other type before too and that stuff they say about red gauges making your eyes tired on long trips is somewhat true. I had a long trip not too long ago at night and they can become tiring to look at [But no weird distortions or anything stupid like some of those sites say]
Blue is alot easier on the eyes and brighter too.
