why just cover them when you can change them all together?

yep, they replace the OEM ones, and use simple wire "t" taps so you could remove them and put it all back to stock if need be. Very EZ install with great picture directions included.

The LEDs behind the speedo and clock are all soldered. They are very easy to change with a little bit of soldering skill.
If you do NOT want to solder at all, you can get the kit from randode.com that covers the LEDs with a vinyl overlay, allows you to put any background that you want as your speedo background, and then has a clear acrylic overlay with the tach, speedo, and fuel gauge markings. There is an LED ring that surrounds the cluster that can be set to several different flashing and motion functions, and can be ordered in the color of your choice. It also replaces the needles with very cool CNC'd skulls.

This kit only affects the gauge cluster and does not alter the clock color in any way. That one, you'll just have to solder or live with it.

Half-way down the page, there are Neo Wedge Based LED bulbs. These replace the existing bulbs behind the A/C controls, base and all. The factory bulbs unscrew half a turn and pop out. These pop in as a replacement, and lock in place with another half-turn clockwise.

Yes the LEDs from Oznium go behind the HVAC. You can get all the other LEDs needed from www.garage1217.com
