How do you make the guages red like the ones in the 99-00 Civic SI and the Integra Type R? Not the guage cluster but the middle guages like where the temperature control and the deck is located. Do you just switch the bulbs to red bulbs?? Or do you have to switch the whole middle part. If anybody knows what im talking about help me out please. THanks~

The guage should come with a little colored balloon to put over the bulb. You can buy them at AutoMeter.com or if you're lucky a local parts store. I bought an Oil Pressure Guage from Autozone an it came with one of these balloons.

switch the bulbs out. its a little hard to pull the a\c controls out but you can pull it out. the bulbs are small and they can be replaced. i'm not sure where you can get colored ones but try breaking a permanent pen open(like a sharpie) and use the ink. i've seen others use this ink for their city lights with no problems. the bulbs for the the gauges can also be changed.

Buy the 3-pack of colored Console Condoms from AutoMeter.com. $3.00. Comes in different colors too. Then just slap them on top of your existing bulbs.
