Open Date & Time in System Preferences and under the clock tab, click the view date & time "in window"

I found this set of icons on resexcellence that changes the Airport Signal Meter's color. (see Pic below) and then i changed the battery meter to match. I'd love to do the same to the Volume meter, so they all matched. Has anyone ever seen a set of replacement icons for this? I tried to do it in Photoshop, but I'm a complete amateur, so it didn't work so well. So I guess if anyone can tell me how to do it in photoshop, that would also be good.
Thanks.
