Default keep the speedometer color

Hey guys, first post here. I have an 05 gt, I love it and enjoy the hell out of it. Still got a lot of mods to do on it, but one that i really want to do is the speedometer light. During the day it is white and i can see it great. and night when i turn my lights on it goes to green.... is there a way to keep it white?? is it an easy install or destall??

all your help would greatly be appreciated! I hope to get some pics up soon!!

the only way that i know to do this is getting the mycolor dash put in. Its not cheap, prolly $300. The white is not the same white either. Its not as crisp IMO I suppose you might be able to trick by overriding a wire in the light switch but not sure about that either.

There might be. The speedo is also controlled by the cars cpu and might gets the signal from that only

I have the MyColor and I like green for the retro look.
