nope.

it is impossible to have an amber color on our stock gauges

why? because the numbers on the faces actually have built in aqua coating, which you cannot remove because it's actually part of the numbers/ ticks

the only thing you can do is mix and match colors (i.e. what I did...put yellow sticky tape behind the numbers, hence yellow + aqua= green) so it matched the color of my car. Anything darker in color and you're going to have a hard time reading numbers at night. I just used the large wedge bulbs and replaced the stock 194 bulbs with them. Now my stock cluster is brighter than my old indiglos, all with the stock look in the daytime.

What about red?

like I said, you can figure it out yourself

if there's turquoise blue backing build into the gauges, what color mixed with turquoise blue= red? Yeah, it's not really doable


I used yellow stickies behind the gauges, so turquoise + yellow = light green

you can figure it out
