Ok, so I ordered some blue inverted lens LEDs off eBay, to throw in the gauge cluster. I wasn't sure if I'd like it or not, but I only paid about $11 for them, so why not.

A loose LED 194, a stock condom wraped 194, and one fitted with my trusty butane powered soldering iron...
I had to really work to get the 194s out of the condoms, the rest was easy. The plastic bases of the LEDs slid right in, and I just bent the wires over and dropped a little solder on them.
