Yeah, I gotta admit, I was kinda surprised how well it turned out myself. I tried colored bulb boots, and different color bulbs first, but they are never as bright, and they make it difficult to see. i just looked at it for a few minutes one time, and it just hit me on how to do it.

BTW, on my F150, the outside face of the gauges is where the white is, and on the back side everything is green. I changed the color of the letters RPM, and gave it the red line marks by carefully scratching away the green on the back side in those specific places, and using the correct color marker in it's place (at night, everything on the gauges was green originally). That way it looks normal in the daylight, but wakes up a little at night.
