id LOVE to know how to do this, i think white, blue or REDDDDD (to match my car) would look cool, however im not a fan of chopping open anything or unbolting half of my car to do something like this hehe.
If there is a simple way of changing it then can someone help us out??

In my old car i had a kit that simply slipped on over the original dials, changed the dial colour to white and at night the light was either blue or green, looked awesome, im guessing its only a matter of time until aftermarket bits and pieces like these are made for the fiesta.

With my old car it was simply pull apart the dash and place covers over the globes (only costs a couple of bucks at wolfies)
