    You can add a white filter if you want (as such http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...FRDxOgodHmEASw) OR just remove all the green, use a 5K or 6K SMD led bulb while the clear frosted plastic on the gauge face to produce your white.

    I did add 3M white reflective tape inside the gauge cluster to help directly the light around to certain areas.

    I'm in the middle of that mod right now. You need something to catch the light and move it evenly across the gauge. I used a stage and lighting filter. Works Awesome!

    And then paint the inside of the mask white with a plastic paint.

    My mod is a little different though. I'm matching the main cluster to the Phantom II gauges I've installed in the stock pod. I'm still not a 100% done yet but when I started this mod I only had Ed's YouTube video to go by. So needless to say I had to do this twice. Best of luck!
