Default Matching Gauge/speedo light color on the Limited's
Those of you with these Limited's. Has anyone been successful finding a white matching 196 bulb for the gauges to actually match the same white in the speedo and tach? If so please post the source and part numbers.

Never realised that the speedo and tach were brighter than the rest until I read this and looked closely.

More important to me is getting the radio display changed out to white.

I would just like some nice bright gauge lighting for night riding without having to replace the gauges.
