The lights unfortunately aren't backlit, so it's going to be a bit of work to make everything blue...

First, you'll have to remove the cluster, and find the two lights on top of the cluster that provide nighttime illumination to the gauges. You have two or three options here:

  1. Paint these lights blue with translucent paint
  2. Switch out these lights with blue ones
  3. Add some blue transparent film in the area of the cluster that they poke out from
Mind you, the cluster won't look much different with the black stock gauges. You might consider adding white faces to your gauge sets, see my site or Dave Barton's, iPd also sells them, although the last newsletter I recieved from them said that they were being discontinued...

Good luck!
