Gauge Cluster Lights

Looking to change the light in the cluster from factory green to red. mainly cause red doesnt bother my eyes as much during night driving, and wondered how you change the light bulbs and can you change the light behind the a/c controls.

The color on the dash doesn't come from the bulbs unfortunately. It comes from the translucent numbers of the gauge face. The light shines though the green film that integral in the dash displays.
