Default FLHX gauge lights

I have seen in some post that people are changing the gauge lights. Can someone let me know what type of lights to purchase? I was looking to go red, can anyone post pics that have done this and again what type of lights and where do you find them.
Thanks

Is it one light per gauge? Also, what type of beam should it be?

Yes one bulb per small gauge. Not sure of what you are meaning by "beam". Beam pattern listed in the specs? Beam of the xHP5 is 360 degree. Puts out light in all directions. I used the xHP5 LEDS. Red in my Ultra, Green in the wifes Glide. The green were almost too bright at night, but I put some black silicone on the top led of the bulb to cover it. Also lighted up the speaker pods. Winter job is large gauges and radio. She loves it. The Red were just right in my Ultra and it almost matches the radio. Wifes Glide has white background my ultra is black back of gauges.

Red in my Ultra

You can just paint the incandescent bulbs with the color of your choice. The gages with LEDs are more difficult.
