Exclamation Gauge lights

I recently decided to install some led neon lights in my truck. I chose to go blue for the lights. But all the gauge lights, ac lights, etc. are all green at night and it really throws the look off. I want to change them all to blue. Do I just have to replace the bulb covers from green to blue, or what? Really would appreciate if someone would help me out on how to change all the gauge lights and what not to blue.

Search this forum. There is a person that did a write-up on converting his entire interior to blue LED lights (radio, door switches, etc).

At one time I think he was offering to do the radio for you....don't know if that's still an option.

When you sort through the search threads, you'll see pros and cons on blue interior lights; some say the blue is hard on the eyes at night. All opinions, so go with what you want.
