Lit my gauge cluster with blue LED's.... - 6G Celicas Forums

Hey, so as the title and description mention, I swapped some blue LED's into my speedometer gauge cluster. It looks pretty good, with the exception of the redline and any other red section, top of temperature gauge, etc. All blue may just be a little monotonous for the cluster, I'm not sure yet. Whenever I start the car, all of the red lights on the dash really pop and look amazing against the blue of the gauges, but there's not enough contrast on the gauge cluster itself. Does anyone have any ideas to make the different color stand out at all? I'm thinking that may just be out of the question with a blue LED providing the light, but I thought I'd ask for some opinions before I go changing anything. I'll probably end up going with a reverse glow gauge like this if the LED's don't end up suiting my taste.
