you could do that with some transparent paper or plastic. or another idea is you could get some rubber caps that go over the lightbulb and would change the color that way. You can probobly find some in wal-mart, my regal had a red interior so I changed the lights to red that way, looked awesome.

LED's would look alot better than plastic light covers..
