Default Changing the light colour of standard dials?

Im wondering how hard it is to change the colour of the light that lights up the speedo, rev counver, fuel level and engine temp in my V4 JDM STi.

Want to change from green to red. Are the bulbs clear with a green filement? If so then how easy would it be to change it to a red filement?

Any help greatly appriciated, need to know this as if it is do-able then i can go ahead and get the extra gauges that i want so they will all match

Had mine out at the weekend, b@st4rd to get the cluster out, bulbs look to be green glass. Odd shaped fitment so if i were you go buy or look at a dash light bulb at yer local subaru parts counter rather then spend ages ripping the cluster out just for a look!
