i did all the gauges and dash lights the same. I just have a bad camera so i took a close up of the rpm gauge. SuperBrightLed's.com you can buy whatever color led bulb you want. Pry the gauge needles off and sand the orange off the bottom side. That will make the bottom side have a frosted look.

I love superbrightleds.com buy stuff from there all the time. I usually swap out most of the lights in and on my cars with led's.

Looks great by the way.
