you could try changing new bulbs but you might lose a bit of the amberness..

i thought that in the eg6/eg9 white faced cluster, the dials made it amber/red, not the bulbs like standard eg5 clusters

also luke, what globes are you using, the stock ones off the eg5 cluster with the blue covers/condoms?
