09 Liftback Speedo Gauge cluster dilemna with picsŪ

Snow day from work today so decided to pull my gauge cluster on my 09 2dr LB to follow VodkaLush's DIY for changing the LED colors. I had purchased the blue LED's he referred to for the sedan. So once I got it all apart (see pics) I noticed:
  • the Speedo LED's are bigger than they are in his DIY - so the ones I bought are too small
  • the clock is in an orange clear housing that gives it its color so changing LED's would not work
  • so if I do get the right size blue LED's I would still have an orange (yuk) clock and that would drive me nuts not having it match
So I put it all back together and left it as it was ALL ORANGE (yuk) - I will debate whether to change just the speedo and fuel/mileage gauge to blue, but I don't think I will. This sucks I was a tad disappointed - but disassembly and reassembley after my discovery took a very short amount of time so not a huge loss
