Probably but you would need to change the LED and resistance value for that color since orange requires less power I believe.

you're all being a little immature, don't you think? All he wanted to know was if he could make the faces glow orange and all you do is correct his english. Get a life.

HAHAHA... damn yall are killin it. i dont think you can change the color, they dont use L.E.D.'s they use like phosphorus and other elements like that, that when charged they create a glowing color. and certain elements only produce certain colors. i believe it is phosphorus that is used to make the blue and green tints when charged with electricity. those autometer guages use a colored slide over a light bulb to produce color

light emitting diode, also try to find the company that you bought the gauge plates from and look for the other inverter. they say it has six colours if i remember right, also i think it will hook up with your plates. hope this helps

but for real men... I NEED TO CHANGE THAT DAMN COLOR!!! IT LOOKS SO DAMN RICERISH why they dont make some damn white faces that are white at daytime, but then it turns all orange with the black numbers at night men... for example look at FDs, there some faces that are all white & black (inverted DUH! lol) and at night when you turn them on its they look almost like the stock one, orange numbers with the black background (its white actually, but at night, because its dark and because you cant see ****, it becomes black) DAMN!!!!

Have you tried just installing the white faces while leaving the stock gauge lights functional? I mean without the indeglo or whatever part wired up. I'm not familiar with the gauge setup though.

Well, I guess you could at least give it a shot.

IDK about changing the color though. Seems like matts86fc3s hit the nail on the head there.
