well in case anyone was interested...
I just finished this install and it is GREAT!
i hate the look of backlit orange (looks dated to me)
next up will be the console led swap to blue as well. the process was tedious (not hard, but tedious) only because it's a lot of trial and error. rotating the bulbs till they light up. was well worth the effort though.
the reason i initially wanted to swap was because when i had the lights turned on, the backlight from the other gauges would make my coolant and fuel light look like they were on! (you can see what i'm talking about in this before pic)... not anymore with the blue! easier on my eyes too!
