Default amber bulbs for gauge cluster

does anyone have a good picture of what your gauge cluster would look like with amber bulbs for lighting? I found a thread or two but most of the pics are no longer there.

It looks amber instead of white.

I don't have pics of mine. However, considering it costs all of $12 for the bulbs and 15 minutes of time, just try it and see if you like it.

Since you didn't bother to list what car this would be for, I'm assuming you have a similar cluster as my DC2. If you don't, then post that info up and wait for someone with a similar car to reply.

Pep Boys
194NA (side marker bulbs, 168 are the correct bulbs, but do not come in amber)
Purchased 2 packs of 2 bulbs per. Used 3 total bulbs.
Also, Pep Boys has a "ricer" section in most stores, where you can get colored glass bulbs in any color (with crappy illumination, of course)

Climate control needs smaller bulbs, not available at normal stores.
Use amber taillight tape for the clock, if desired.

Again, this was for a DC Integra. Other models will possibly be different, especially the older Civics that illuminate the face directly, instead of from behind.
