buy some 194 LEDs whatever color you want, from autolumination.com, oznium.com, orsuperbrightleds.com, take off your cluster and remove old bulbs, replace with whatever color led you want...

haha the cluster is the speedo. you can only go to blue unless you want to do some serious work to it. get some white leds for it and it will shine through blue because there is a blue film on the bacl of the guages.

it will shine through a nice blue and you will still have a redline and red for your temp guage. if you do blue lights you lose all that

actually it is very easy, remove the two screws on the sides of the dash, one right where the defrost vent is (you will need a small screw driver for that) pop off the driver side, side pillar, and pop dash up just enough to remove the four screws holding the gauges in. once those are off, pull gently to disconnect cluster, and pull it right out. Turn the cluster around and you will see grey bulb holders (lol not sure of the name) and turn to the left, and pull out. you will then see the bulb, gently pull bulb out and re insert new bulb. to reinstall just do everything in reverse order, it is extremely easy, i myself wanted to do this but ended up getting an incompatible cluster (or so i think it is) just gotta wait for another cluster with mileage close to mine. GOOD LUCK!!!!
