The dash bulbs themselves are #94 and a common bulb used in most dashes, you can get several colors. I have changed mine all to red. Some of the switches use a very small bulb that I could not find colored, for these I purchased some heat resistent colored film used for theater lighting, made small straw shaped covers for each bulb.

I do a lot of night highway driving and I find the red lighting in the dash much easier on the eyes while still making the guages very visible, rather than just dimming the standard grenn/blue color
