    Does anyone know if these bulbs have those little colored condoms things making them light up green? If so, I'm assuming they are smaller than the gauge bulbs with the orange condom and those wouldn't work as a donor condom for color change. does anyone know? I need to get into the gauge cluster anyway to replace a burned out bulb and was thinking of changing the color of the green ones while I'm in there to maybe orange or red. And if I'm going to be able to do this, I'd like to get everything I need before taking it apart.

    Looking closer at my instrument panel, it kinda looks like the color is in the part of the panel that the bulb shines through rather than the bulb or a bulb cover. Not sure, but that's what it looks like it might be. If so, probably considerably more involved to change the color than just changing a bulb or bulb cover.

    But please do chime in if you know either way.
