Rings: 89-97 “Mazda Miata MX5 MX-5 Chrome Dial Gauge Rings” from “the-tuning-shop-team” (eBay) - $39.99+$11.99 S/H

Yellow status lights: “LED Chrome Dash Warning Light 12v *Amber*” from “jess1scruff” (eBay U.K.) – 4 for $10.42
Paint: HomeDepot, tractor supply
Lettering: Woodland Scenes Dry transfers-Hobbytown

Tips:
I found most of the lights by searching for “pilot lights” or “indicator lights” on eBay. There are many other styles other than the ones I chose including the taller, jeweled “fender amp” style that KG uses. Another option is to simply go down to the local radio shack and pick up metal LED holders. The four amber lights could have been purchased that way if I had known. The only down side of this is that you would have to make a lenses for them of some type, which could be as simple as cutting off the head of a cheap LED and gluing it in.
