I don't think the lights are changed in those pics. I think it's just part of the gauges themselves.

i dont know, i dont use them. youd have to double check what size the bulb is, and I'd just get ones that throw a wide beam

The only thing I don't like is the white face. Nothing else in my Jeep is white, it would stick out like a sore thumb.

If one were to just replace the bulbs what sort of glow effect would you get? In other words to you all think it's be necessary to replace the gauge faces to a white face in order to get a decent glow effect?
