The color of your dash lights are not the fault of the bulbs themselves. The bulbs are clear. It's the actual gauge the is the color green. Buy some aftermarket gauges. A friend of mine bought some MAC gauges and the color was blue but, the fit wasn't all that great. Ask guys on here which ones they bought and the quality they were in. Keith

If you are looking for new face gauges the best place is www.speedhut.com. You can customize everything. That's where I bought mine. They come with their own backlight so they are much better than layovers. But they cost like $100. I love mine. I think it was worth the money. I had layover before and they had terrible dark spots in them.

Pro Car Parts has some good gague pods on ebay, and their website... not too pricey, and they fit well too (at least in a fox body, I know they do...)
