Do you have blue LEDs already in there? 1997-1998 F-150s have blue tint on all the gauges where in 1999 Ford switched to green. I replaced the stock incandescent 194s in my 1998 with LEDs. So blue tint + white LEDs = blue output. If you have stock bulbs in a 1999+, it'll give a greenish color off. Replace with what is already in there.

All you need is one single 194 incandescent bulb. All auto stores carry them, usually in a two-pack.

Cool I hope they have blue. I have to scrape off the green tint right?

It is a pain in the ass, I would not recommend it. You risk scraping off the black as well. Just get a regular bulb.

a blue light with green tint, you'll get like a sea blue color that wont match the rest of your lights.

Oh ok I'm sure the green tint won't be hard to get off. I'm prolly just gonna get west coast customs here in town to do everything blue. Temp and compass, and odometer seems like it would be hard to swap!

In order to take the tint off will take some effort. I used a dab of some good olé gasoline, and a razor blade to scrape it off. I didn't have much luck with sandpaper but a buddy of mine did.

But I built my own LEDs. They spot really bad, I didn't cut them or do anything to diffuse them either. On my buddy's explorer we put tinfoil somewhere inside the cluster and cut the LED. That seemed to work. He hasn't complained.
