Default Intrument cluster lighting

Just finished modding my instrument cluster. I noticed that there was 2 orange lights that shawn down on my gages so I decided to investigate. I tore appart my dash and found the cause of the problem. I took out the light holder thingy and there was an orange peice of plastic covering the lights so I made a new peice and painted it blue. I also took the cluster appart and painted it blue as well. My needles now glow blue instead of orange. Here is some pics of the process. mind the messy interior. It will be spotless soon

Fiirkan, I would think it would be diferent colour bulbs, but I think they make coloured gauges as well. I would like to re-do my carpet inside....has anyone done this? Is there much to it? Any thoughts on what to do? After I do my carpet I will be adding lights under the seats. Any thoughts, welcomed.
