I'm not sure if that can be done. But there's a specific (and BMW historical) reason why it turns red at night... do you know why?

As I recall it, it's something about when it's dark and you are looking at the cluster and back at the road your eyes are faster or not loosing focus with the orange color.

“BMW's characteristic orange-red hue is generated by light at a wavelength of 605 nanometers. The color was chosen to allow the driver to clearly see the instrument cluster, but also to be able to adjust to the darkness outside the vehicle quickly after looking up. The eye doesn't tire as quickly trying to read gauges illuminated with red-orange light”
