Default Clock light

So i've never seen a diy for the clock light on a 2000 accord so I figured out myself, turned out pretty easy there's a colored piece of plastic behind the screen so i took it out and put in red plastic from a grocery type bag and it worked out great, I originaly wanted blue but couln't find anything so it's red for now, if anyone wants a step by step let me know

click on the link below on my sig about the Blue gauges. Email the guy where I bought the film from and use it cause its heat resistant and you can get any color.

Edit: a DIY would be perfect so that others can do that too.

the color doesn't come from the bulb, it's a colored strip that lines the back of the display

I would like to see a DIY on the removal of the clock and replacement of the clock light. The light has burned out in my wife's 2000 Accord EX. She wants it replaced.

Thanks,
DCR
