I want to change out the old orange lights to UV LEDs or something similar and was wondering what type of bulbs are they so I can replace them if it's possible. If there's already a thread on this my apologies.

Bonus points if you could recommend plastic friendly UV paint for the gauge needles.

There's a thread in the how to section to convert to LEDs. Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but aren't UV LED's outside of the visible spectrum?
