the bulbs in the gauge cluster are size 194 i did mine in red, you can buy them at pep boys you need 3 bulbs, this will change the entire guage cluster except for the clock it uses a smaller bulb which they dont sell in diffrent colors.. and i think the cigarette lighter and the center console uses the small type bulbs but im not sure....

your gauges and needles light up with some 194's. I switch mine to 194R when I put in my reverse gauges. As for my clock I just used a red sharpie and put on 5 coats. You can do the same thing with a blue sharpie.

To get at the gauges, unscrew the two screws at the top of the gauge cluster.

Now gently grab the front sides and pull until you hear a click (which means the cover is out).

Now disconnect the cable to the dimmer switch and cruise control.

You can pull out this cover with a little force and bending.

After that you will have three screws(same size as the first two): one on the top center, and one on each side lower corner. Unscrew them and gently side the cluster out.

There are 4 cable plugs connected in the back you have to disconnect to completely that the cluster out. Just disconnect these cable plugs.

Now you can completely take out your cluster and on the back you will notice the plugs for each light bulb.

I have no idea on what you can do with the center console.
