i did that on a nissan once but made all the lights blue. behind it there were a bunch of 194 bulbs. since they work off 12volts, i replaced them w/ a 200ohm resistor and a blue led light.

the one you saw on RSX has RED flear fonts, so they just light up RED when lit by 194 regular bulbs.

change then to red, and you'll get that red color,
be aware, it might be too "DIM". so, little idea, don't know if it will work.

get some EXTREME WHITE 194 lights, and buy some red flims and do some work?
just sugesstion.
