you're probably better just taking them out first and seeing for yourself what they are. I think they're just the standard dash lights you find in many toyotas.

yeah, wedge shaped 5W bulbs, i just put those blue caps on mine to make them 'bluer', makes them a bit duller though but certainly brighter than the old ones

If you want the lights brighter, replace all the standard bulbs with new ones of the same spec and clean the contacts between the bulb holder and the gauge housing.
Putting the blue frangers on the bulbs will not help at all. If you want to colour the lights then I would look at wiring up some LEDS. Bare in mind that they will not work on the normal dimming circuit though. If you want them to dim you will need to power them with an adjustable voltage regulator.

i just put newbies in....makes a hell of a difference.
im looking into opening the guages and putting in lighting gels to change the colour...form the std green to a more yellow.
