Guage Lights

HELP! I hate the green lights behind the guages, so I bought red ones, I coudlnt find any forums telling you how to change them in the CL so I used Integra instructions thinking it would be the same, I got as far as taking the 2 top screws off of the bevel and couldnt get it off...PLEASE HELP ME GET IT OFF!

there should be two at the top, and one each behind the cruise control button and the other button on the other side.

there should be 4? (i think) bulbs behind the bezel and two on the top. just simply replace the bulbs. Leave to two at the top because youre gonna need them so you can see the needles. Unless you have a 98+, i heard the needles light up themselves.

None of the CL's have light up needles. A misconception on this board, your not the only one that i have heard this from. 2 screws above, one behind dimmer and one behind cruise. The rest you can see when you pop off the plastic. Unclip the harness and go to town. If your using led bulbs, make sure to sand them down to avoid hot spots. You will prob get sick of the backlit and move up to white faces or reverse indiglo's tho.
