The quickest and easiest way I have seen was when someone put blue tint over their radio and gauges. Looked pretty good.

I have redone EVERY light in the car...take the time and put LEDs in there...it's worth the time and effort.

Won't work, even with 20,000MCD LEDs, as the beam does not reach full width until 2" from the souce of the light.
