That would look pretty neat but if your wanting to do just lights, you can replace the bulbs with leds from superbrightleds.com

Just be sure that you get your needles set back to what they are now, I took mine apart awhile back and a few are still off

Had a set in my second S10. I had the brushed aluminum first but the numbers weren't cut correctly so light shined through in weird places. The second setup I had was like that. I liked it a lot, but the needles can be a ***** to get right again. Needless to say, the number one problem can be your temp needle if you've run the truck at all that day. Best advice is to fill her up, park her over night, and then do it. That way you know your truck is cold and full of fuel.

Just use a removable marker or crayon of some sort and mark where your needles are pointing before you remove them.......... somethin like that lol it should work i would think.
