changing gauge lights

hey guys. here's what i want to do. I want to change the low gas light and the cruise control light and the turn signal lights in my dash to a bunch of funky colors, like blue and pink instead of green and orange and red. I'm confused about a couple things... If anyone has ever done this before please respond to this post cause I'd like to ask a couple questions (such as, is it as simple as just replacing the bulbs, or would i need to wire new led's in there... do i need to take off my steering wheel and all that shit or is it fairly easy to get to them, etc.).
Thanks for the help!

Re: changing gauge lights

What kind of car do you drive?
Most of the honda's have colored lens' (the part that has the shapes on it) that determine the color. If you change the bulb, chances are that it will remain the same color.

Yes you are correct, its the shapes that are colored, so you could take a razor and cut the colored part out and replace it with some colored clear plastic...if you have very steady hands.
