Instrument Panel/Cluster Lighting Color

Has anybody changed the backlighting to red or blue or something other more exciting thna OEM rather dull white. I've changed the face guages so the bulbs must be pretty easy to change in the instrument cluster, any sources where I can buy them ? thoughts pics welcome

No, they are not very easy. They are board LEDs so they must be soldered in. There are like 20 something if I recall. I did all of mine in the cluster and heater controls. I would caution you on this job. It is great when it is done, but there is a lot to screw up.
