Changing Radio LEDS to BLUE???

I was wondering if anyone has done it or has pix of changing the LEDS for the radio, clock console. I put blue LED's in my vents to be different but want to change the yellowish green color on the clock, radio etc. Thanks

Tatewaki did it a couple of years ago.... looks good except you can see where the LED are... I reccomend sanding the led to give off a frosted finish, making it less noticable ... A buddy of mine did that in his prelude, didn't like the sharp look of the LEDs so he lightly sanded them and it improved the look ten fold...

WOW Thanks that helped alot. I would not be doing it I have a friend that does alot of electronic customizing for Lexus, Audi, Jetta etc. I was just curious what was involved. My only question is does everything need to be pulled out like the pictures or is it possible to change the lights after you pull off the cover?

The dash is like a pyramid (kinda). You can't take out piece D without unscrewing piece C, but piece B is screwed on piece C, so you gotta take out piece B. Put piece B shares a few bolts with piece A. So you take piece A out. Next thing you know, your whole dash is apart.
