Thanks for the ideas ya'll. The 2825 bulbs are 5 watts, opposed to the 194's which are 3. They are definetly brighter than the 194's. Any parts store should have them (Advance Auto Parts does sell them in a box of 10 that are reasonably priced in their commercial department).I'll go ahead and paint the housing white. I'm old school and don't really care for the white face gauges, not saying they don't look good, I just prefer the black face. Thanks again.
