I took out my gauge cluster, and put on my white gauges. It looks nice, but I don't like the green glow. Is there any way to make it nongreen? I've switched out the stock bulbs and added superwhites /w no caps, but it still glows green. Why is that? Is it the acutal gauges that have green on them

thanks

Jonathan, glad you told me as I was thinking of doing the same thing. BTW, I live in Everett. Where do you get superwhite bulbs locally? Also are they 194 or 164 bulbs in the dash?

i was wondering if they changed the way the guages were made from 92-94 since they made some changes to the maxima then. has anyone with a 92-94 been able to succesfully change the guage lights colors?

The HyperWhites still look good, they make it a LOT brighter. Though, still green.
