Default Gauge Lights and Spoiler

Hi, I havent posted here in forever, I just decided to start working on my 93 aristo again. Its good to be back. Anyways I have 2 questions, for the interior of my gs im going for the red and black look, I was wondering How i can change the guage light colors to red, I know there a very similar orange color, but I mean like straight up red, I looked for a replacement cluster thats red already, but as we all know 1st gen Gs parts are hard to come by,So does any1 know how to switch the lights on the guages, how would I remove the plastic also? Like infront of the guages?

Question 2: I was wondering what kind of spoiler to get, I saw this one on ebay, but I dont know what it would actually look like on my car or if its the real Aristo Jdm Spoiler. heres the link : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-L...spagenameZWD1V

I was thinking about getting a bolt on spoiler , not the huge ones, but like low profile (I currently have the black trunk lip) , I was wondering what size the spoiler would have to be to fit our cars.

Yeah I saw the cluster post, but I couldnt figure out how to change the amber colored background to red to match the needles... Yeah I painted them myself, But I think im going to get new rims soon. They would look really nice if I dropped my GS, Im looking for springs at the moment.

Also does anyone know a website that has the bulb type/number of every light in 1st generation GS's, I cant find the fogs, and I might need to know the bulb size for the cluster

Ive never been a big fan of the jdm wing, theres a member on here with a "Mseries style" wing that looks real clean IMO. JOB design makes one just like it. Thats what im goin with when I get around to it.

Yeah I did search, I looked through the archives, for the cluster one, I didnt search for the fogs tho, thanks for answering tho, About the Fog bulbs tho, Any H3 would do? I saw the DIY post on the Fogs and they dont look like some of the H3 bulbs on ebay.
