Ambient Lighting

Does anyone know if its possible to change the ambient lighting? The ones I am talking about are the blue lights under the console. I just recently changed everything to LEDs and that blue light does not match.

If you take off the underside of the dash, the lights are LEDs held in a slot. I believe they have a wire harness that disconnects that would allow you to remove and replace. However, you will likely have to desolder and solder the new bulb in.

I have to agree with Heavy. I think it will look worse. Did they match anything before?

That was one of my favorite aesthetics about the car.
