Lightbulb New Gauge lights

I was wondering if anyone sells different colored light bulbs for my Gaffrig by Livorsi gauges?


Thanks in advance!

I believe they are Rubber boots that slip over the bulb. IIt may depend on the gauge though think they come in Red Blue Green

Here is a link it is not Livrosi but it does show the boots:

I m switching to LED's diffused 60 degree lens u nead a resistor
for each one or u can series several together until the current
required is reached, best of all they are vibration resistant
and come in lots of colors, u need to know someone with
a little electronics background
some already are designed for 12 v

brighter bulbs produce more heat, and that will cause the color bulb caps to fade over time, leds draw less current about 1/8 for
the same light and less heat, I just switched the trailer lights
over to a tractor trailer lights 50 leds per unit completly sealed
and u get about 60 feet more notice to the driver behind u cause
a led is instant on and a incandesent has to heat the filament
before there is and light output about 250 milliseconds
I got the oval lights off ebay for 60 bucks they fit right in the
trailers rubber gromment best of all I dont jump out at the dock
to unplug the lights, back to your problem find out what the
bulb is size or style or send me a pic ,
I going to be building some bulbs for courtesty lamps, engine compartment and cuddy lights, Im just trying to get the cool
neon lite look and be able to leave the lights on for hours
without running the batteries down
