If you google it under "colored bulb covers" or "autometer covers" you should find a whole bunch. You'll need a site with the different sizes unless your only doing your cluster. For my 88 Runner it was the small standard for the heater & A/C controls and the large or magnum, I guess you could say, for the dash cluster.

I found that it was just as easy to change out the bulbs to colored ones as it was to put condoms on them...and you get a lot less weird looks...I had started the thread...and deleted it when I cleaned up my threads.
Any local auto parts place has colored bulbs in the "bling bling" section!

go here

and search for "Colored Light Bulb Covers" they are on page 631
just get all three of the smallest bags of 10. They're cheap.
You'll need 2 different sizes T1 and T1 3/4 I think. Need 'em for things like the switches and the heater controls, and the lighter and stuff.
I love my "battle stations" red dash board lights!
