You kind of answered your own question, you need different color bulbs. On each of the bulbs in your dash there is a little rubber transparent "sock" that is colored orange (glows amber).
You will need to go to almost any auto parts store like Murrays, Auto Zone, Even places like Walmart I have seen the bulbs. I think there an equivelant to a 194 is what you will need. Usually you can look it up in a book there on the shelf at the store to figure out which size you will need. If you go that far, do not forget the Center console shifeter, the radio and the heater control bulbs.
Hope that helps/
