aftermarket question regaurding radio...

i was just wondering if any1 knows or thinks it will be possible to change the color of the radio dials? they are red and my car is blue...nothing about my car will be red...i hate red!...im getting the blacked out tail light covers to cover that red, getting black or chrome SS/rs badges...and the only other thing thats red is the dam radio dial...how and could it be replaced?

also what about the speedometer and rpm dials? i just wanna eliminate all red in the car!...except the red line thats about it!

It may be quite a while before you find a company that will do that but you may want to experiment with finding a blue translucent paint which will turn the color to a shade of purple?

Forget about changing the color of the gauge needles though.

The gauges maybe with an overlay. The integrated head unit, nope. Unless you took it apart and changed the LED's. That's some serious soldiering skills. They are probably mini led's on a surface mount. It's a one and million job unless your an EE forget it.
