Default Anybody changed the Subaru Lamco boost gauge back light from white to green?

I've managed to find a used Lamco boost gauge (the one that attaches to the sterring column) but the back lighting is white and not green. Has anybody changed this at all? Maybe using a green LED bulb, or green bulb paint etc.

Cheers,

Tony.

PS it's the black version with red needle.

i had a similar problem when i changed my gauges to smiths!
could not find right size bulbs in green!
thought i would try green permanent pen as temp fix(thought it would dry out or burn on)
off to tesco bought a set of colored permanent pens for a bout £1.
1 year later still nice green!
