thanks mate. I will use amber leds. I just want to know if it looks better.
 
usually those leds are producing less light than the normal bulbs,it depends the manufacturer.
 
Depends on your cluster actually, some have a film on the back that will block any colour coming through giving off that red/pinky colour. To remove this you need to scratch the film off on the back of the numbers where the light comes through, think it's the pre face clusters that do this. Use acetone/nail varnish remover to do it, takes a while but eventually comes off. Be careful messing around the back of the cluster though, no idea what I did but I broke the temp gauge doing this and caused the gauge to always read hot.

Quick test after the film was removed and the white came through perfect, think there's a diy on d series . org
