1 of my dash lights has bit the dust, so I'll be yanking the dash out soon to replace the bulbs. 1 thing I've never liked is the orange glow of the gauges at night. I did a search and found this pic where JanceGTS used white LED bulbs, but obviously the orange tint is still very much there.

What can be done to totally eliminate the orange glow? I don't want anything crazy, but something that looks much more modern. Maybe a subtle white? Do I need to swap the gauge faces to accomplish this? This pic by KNG SNKE is exactly the look I want when at night and with the gauges on:

That gauge never made its way into my car. I really liked the daytime look of it but I didn't like seeing through the gauge at night. I ended up installing a set with black background and yellow lettering. I will post the link when I get home. Either way check your pm.
