Yeah I want blue. But mine is Denso, not Nippon. Anyone know what size/wattage/voltage and how many I need?

you need 12v #194 (Honda 158) and 12v #74. I bought them from www.autolumination.com
wattage doesn't really matter.
And the LED's will work just fine.

But it you wanted one, I would be willing to make a custom gauge cluster for you that you could just drop in.

I personally don't like the red, but you had a good idea. I want to see how mine will look blue... I'm trying to keep my car stock looking as possible.

I hear ya. I really like that BMW/Audi/Porsche look. I can't afford any of those, so hey! This is a good suppliment.
Oh and you need 4 #74's and 5 #194's. And I did notice one thing last night. There must be some sort of blue/green film in the door ajar signal area, cause it still looks a little green down there.

I also noticed that it looks a bit better when the lights aren't cranked up all the way.

Huh?
I thought there were only lights above the guages.

You know, after driving for a GOOD long while tonight, I'm gonna do it tomorrow. I don't like how stong it is. I'm thinking it might be time for some UV LED's.

i really would recomend putting LED lamps behind the gauges so they stand out. Other colors don't come through so clearly. Check out www.autolumination.com

So what do other people think?
My buddy did that to his G2 Integra and was able to fool some people that it's a JDM cluster. LOL I might do the same thing to my Teg, but in blue. :D
