Restoring Dash

I just painted an IH 424 utility and it has both the warning lights for charginnxircuit and the oil pressure. Since both generic warning lights I am getting should be red, how could I label them so it looks professional and serves its purpose? I can't seem to find a light that has the logo on the lens.
 
About all I can think of would be find someone with engraving equipment, like a trophy shop, jewelry engraving, etc.

Get the lenses lightly engraved then paint down in the engraving.

Other option would be to contact someone that does instrument restoration. They would have the ability to do intricate lettering.
 
Trying to figure out what you've got going on... My 424 has a "cluster" similar to the one in the photo with the tellites clearly marked internally, and that's what the parts catalog seems to show???

Thanks for bringing that up, as I didn't even notice it until you said thabandbinliiked at the picture I had. I was thinking it had separate lights as I have several holes in the dash and extra wires I have to figure out where they go. A picture of the dash for an IH 424 GAS would be helpful if anyone has it. Here is mine....

After looking at a picture of the dash on the diesel version of the same tractor I have came up with the following. I still need to know if the 3 holes I've circled were used or were not used.

Bob, His own pic clearly shows the icons for oil P and Amps in the center gauge cluster that you posted. I guess he didn't look close enough.
