Several people upgraged their entire dash when a few gauges went bad. They said it was almost as cheap as replacing just the broken gauges.

You can buy "rubbers" for the bulbs to change the color

Sorry for the delay I was overseas.

The numbers light as light green, the surround is amber. You can use lightbulb covers, I know summit racing has them for sure.

The problem is that if you use red which is opposite end of the color spectrum from the green numbers, they will not light well.

This very subjective though as one of my friends runs red and he is pleased with the look. I personally did not like it.
