Is there any way to disconnect the lights for the gauges?  I don't have the mycolor and noticed with the lights off the guages are white and a lot brighter than when the lights are on (green, but very low intensity).  I want the white lights on all the time!  I don't want the green lights at all.

Is there a reliable little tweak i can do without disarming the traction control or something?

Yes, pull the dash and insturment cluster. 
Remove the LEDs in the insturment cluster
that produce the green light.
Avoid damaging the $1000 insturment cluster
in the process. Or override the high speed can
buss and emulate the PCM data to delete the
green light when its unwanted.
There is a way but its not easy.
PM me if you are feeling up to the task.

Whoa, holy hell.  That's a lot of steps.  Also, i'm trying to get rid of the GREEN lights.  I love the white lights.
