Leds are polarity sensitive. Best thing to do is bench test your backlighting with a 9v batt and 2 alligator end test leads. Hook ground to the gage housing and hot to pin on circuit board that feeds the lighting. If it doesnt light, just turn bulb 180° and drop back in the socket, or ditto with leads on the light strip if soldered to a bulb socket.
Thanks but the green wouldn't work for me. I have a good on gold 65 formula s project. Looking at options as I go. Thanks againAgain same thing I did with the 9v. Here are a couple more pics.

Mine are all teenage girls. They come help if I need em to but they're not chomping at the bit to get dirty. They do change their own oil and flat tires though. So they get by okay. Actually my middle one changed some guys tire at school a few weeks ago. This pic is already posted in the thread but it's my favorite.Some great life skills for your kids if they are engaged. My oldest son and I have done a lot of car projects. Probably lost money on all, don’t even think about counting labor, but it taught him a lot of skills and problem solving. Great times. Would do it over again in a minute. Just try and keep the scope down so you can have some successes & don’t be too picky or you will lose them.
Thanks for the input so far. I try and base decisions on facts and logic. But this ones different, I just don't want my emotions or the sentimental value to cloud my judgement.
So that's my adventure in forged aluminum steel 18" wheels.
