Default Blue cluster and needles

here's the pic of my OEM cluster with the blue LED's and blue needles. DO I need to work on getting the red to pop or is the blue combo good enough?

blue looks good enough to me. Was it very difficult to change the color? Where do you get your lights from?

Looks great! I still prefer the contrast of the red needle on the blue background like you attempted before. How did the faceplate conversions go?
