Congrats on your SPG. I was totally in loe with mine when I got it. At speed, it accelerates like an Olds 442. Awesome.
For your questions: The bulbs for the instruments are white. There are green 'gels' that the insturment lights shine through for the lighting color. After a decade or so, they oxidize and become more brownish. I don't think that there's a good way to get to the gels without taking the cluster out. It's easy to replace the lights, though. Pull the left-side speaker grille and the light holders are accessible through there. Had that same problem on my '88 when I got it.
All of the dash lighting is on whenever the key is in the run position, so there's no problem with that.
