Default Window switch led mod?

I have done the hvac led mod, ignition ring ect to red leds but now the window switch is annoying the crap out of me with its dull green glow. After a lot of searching the Internet I belive that the window switches (drivers side master switch) can be modded in a similar way to the hvac so they all light up.
​​​​​​Has any one with a 05- done this?
I want to try and do these switches

Like this but with red leds

Has any one done this, is it possible?
Just wondering before I go and order a spare set to have a go at.
Thanks jon

Done and read many times. I'm sure I can do it no problem. I just don't know if it's possible with these switches. Mine is a 07 Hawk with a different style button so would have to buy a set of these to do.
