Lightbulb Need suggestions for a 2003 Corolla LE

Hey everyone,
I'm the proud owner of a 2003 Toyota Corolla LE. It took a little while for me to fall in love after losing my 2008 Yaris to an MVA. Still, I am pretty happy with my new baby. I put in an OEM dash kit and some new floor mats, added some other nice touches and I am wanting to do something with the instrument cluster. The bright white light just doesn't do it for me.

I tried to order a custom instrument cluster, but I could not find a place to make them for a 2003. I did find one place, Custom Caribbean Designs, but they never shipped it. I was fortunate that I ordered through Paypal and they were willing to settle the dispute.

Anyway, I welcome any suggestions on snazzing up the instrument panel. I was going to replace the light bulbs, but when I took off the instrument cluster the back didn't look like any cluster that I saw on Youtube (the closest year was the 2002 and the panel is waaay different).

All I can say now is HELP!

Hey there, welcome to Toyota Nation!

Tell you what I'll do, I'll move your introduction thread over to the Corolla forums so the other owners there can offer you some suggestions.
