Is the green color produced by the factory '99?-04 Gauges green bulbs or is there a film of some some sort over the bulbs?
The reason I ask is because I want to change the gauge light color to blue. I don't nessesarily want white face gauges, but if that is the only way to do a blue gauge setup I will.

The bulbs are clear, the green comes from the factory gauge face. I just installed Mac White Faced gaiges and love them.

Sorry Guys

I'm not trying to be a "Thread Raper", but I saw a couple of you guys where from NC. I've been looking for a good Mustang or Ford performance shop to get some performance mods. I found a website for Modular Madness, which is a shop in Mooresville, NC. Do either of you know anything about that place? Modularmadness.com

I read that the BBK white face gauges glow blue instead of green. Can anyone verify?

Hmm..my stock gauge cluster (including radio/temp controls) glows blue instead of green at night, is that because mine's a 2000?

These are cheap "indiglo" gauges off ebay. They glow either green OR blue at the flip of a switch. I think I paid 30 bucks total about a year ago.
