How easy it is depends on what year your polo is. If its pre-98', then its hard. If its 98' or after, it's slightly easier. IIRC, the 98'+ models' dials are back-lit with LEDs rather than front-lit with bulbs. This means its easier to change the colours of the LEDs. (I have a pre-98' model so don't quote me on this).
Im pretty sure its not too hard to change the rest of the bulbs in the dash - the ones behind the electric mirror control, the one behind the heater switches etc. are all pretty easy to swap for red versions. At least i would think so.
Hope this helps

I'm kinda liking the red dash on the Alfas... would go well with my red polo
