Changing gauges to blue

I haven't been to this site a quite awhile, when I was on this site someone posted up, How to change the gauges to blue and it looked hot. I was wondering does anyone know how to change the white gauges to blue.

Thanks

That's me! Ok, part of making them birghter also had to deal with overcoming making them blue. In order to make them blue you need to replace the existing bulbs with hyper-white bulbs. Granted they have a blue hue, but that has nothing to do with how it will make your cluster look - changing the bulbs to a hyper white will exaggerate the blue film on the back of the gauges. So all you have to do is change out the stock bulbs w/ hyper-white filament bulbs. Check my homepage for the HOW-TO.
