Hi everyone, I have an 04' Elantra GLS.

I was wondering the easiest way to change the color that the speedometer and tachometer gauges light up at night. They're factory light green on the GLS, but I would like to change it to the light blue like the GT Elantra.

I've read several posts, and some say to change the bulbs or get a glow gauge kit, but they didn't really explain how to do anything. I looked on ebay and was only able to find a glow gauge for 2003 and below. Are these the only options?

What would be the easiest (and most cost effective) solution? How would I do something like this? Pictures would be greatly appreciated if available :-)

I know I asked a lot, but I was really curious.

Any help and advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Replace the bulbs with coloured led ones. you should be able to find what you need at superbrightleds.com As for how to change them out it's pretty easy, take off the gauge cluster adn you'll see in the back how the bulbs come out and go in.
