I put bue in my TA. All you have to do is buy one of the silver overlays from someone like macewen motorsports. Take off your stock one like stated above and where he has circled in the pic above just cut out with an exacto knife. After cutting out the red areas stick the stocker back on and line up the new overlay and stick on top of the stock one. Now just put blue LED's in place of the stock white ones and you have all blue lights. The only thing on mine that isn't blue is the LCD for the mileage. Hope that helps the TA guys.

Gregg 00SS, The blue LEDs match cobalt gauges almost exactly. I bought a set online, I don't remember what site but this is a better deal. I paid a little more for mine. It brings everything together very nicely.
For the trans am guys, don't waist your time with the stock gauge overlay, it is not easy to get perfect. I sanded off the red and it worked but I was not happy with it. Just buy the camaro overlay. It's an exact fit and not very expensive. I think the only thing I had to do to get it to work is poke a small hole for a tab. The bezel will fit over the camaro gauges but it covers the little gauge symbols for temp, oil, battery and gas. If you can't figure out which is which without the symbols then don't use the bezel.
Heres a pic.

Here's a pic of the gauges with the hyper white LED's. There a little brighter than in the picture but not by much, you can make out everything though and the red lights up a lot better than with the blue. It is more of a subtle look, I like it just because its not super bright. Check out the pics.
