I dont believe red will work. The stock bulbs are stock yellow lights, so in order for the stock color to be that greenish tint, then there has to be some blue somewhere. In other words, there is a blue underlayer to mix the light to make it green. So using red LED's would only create a purple effect. Unless you remove that blue layer, your color options are limited...

When you guys did this was any of your twist locks burnt? Just for ****s and giggles I poped out the headlight switch. When I pulled out the bigger light the twist lock was brown and kinda melted
