I need an Auto Meter gauge red bulb cover. Does anyone have an extra one? Two would be even better. I will be happy to pay $$ plus shipping. Thanks.

I have red LED bulbs, 194 style.

Is there a way to change the EATC to red?

Not easily.........

With enough time and money anything is possible...........

there is, i did a search and found a couple thread on cvn.net about converting it over, it wasn't that hard, you will need a piece of clear red plastic to fit in the eatc front face

let me see if i can find them

its a pretty good read for changing all bulbs including those in the switches to leds...

That write up doesn't address changing the color of the EATC button which is as more labor intensive task....... if it can be done at all.

Thanks for the info.

I have my pod gauges red which I like a lot. I want to try to changing the oil and volt meter gauges to red with the bulb covers. I'm worried that red right next to green EATC etc. will make it look like Christmas time......

I've always loved red gauges, like in my 1990 Firebird Formula 350.
