Had a gauge light not functioning so got inspired by one of the threads on the forum and did this with red LED's to the gauge lights. Fast and easy. Don't think I have the guts to tackle the speedo and tack though. I used these LED's (low cost) from Amazon.:

Thank you gentlemen. I will continue with the red theme but maybe do the needles in blue or yellow or leave them.
I think I might try this in the winter. Don't want to cut my riding season as it is all too short where I live. Already the leaves are turning.
I am a little worried about my fingers motor skills as my hands and fingers were negatively impacted from my mining days, clumsy and shaky old man now. Might see if I can find someone with the soldering skills before I ruin the gauges.
I had a friend of my fathers do the soldering as he had a soldering vac in case there was a mistake. I gave him $40 as he also fixed my computer. So, if you can't find someone local, some shipping and a few bucks to another retiree, I can get you set up.
