Open a tin of quality street ,then keep eating them until you find the colour wrapper you need ,
you have to open a lot because different colours react differently with the green from the clock

i just got some gel sheet that photographers use for coloured lighting/flashes, used a little bit of double sided tape an then put it back in, not super red but looks a lot better with all my red LEDs than the blue original...
