Default Sapphire Clocks, can you change the backlight colour?

My stereo lights up in a nice blue colour, can the backlight colour on the standard black clocks be changed to match?

Any night pics of alternative clock styles ?

You could try but not sure it would look that good. The bulbs are just white bulbs and dead easy to change to another colour.

Please mate

Trouble is, I don't want to remove my needles as surely it would bugger up calibration ?

If I stick blue bulbs in my stock dials would it look wank with the allready green tint built into the faces??? anyone tried it?

Are these the same dials as Cossie-Spen has as they don't list them on their site.

Cossie-Spen, where did you get yours from?

Thanks again.
