Default Anyone changed their centre console LED's ?

I am going to change my green LED's over to red, because it looks stupid having a fully red lit up defi dash in the JDM STi, and then green centre console lights.

Only thing that will remain green is the clock, but defi guages will replace those in time.

Anyone done it before and how easy is it really? Shouldnt be too hard and i presume they are just standard LEDs?

Iv got the JDM STi dash, the black one which lights up read when u start it!

i've seen a thread showing exactly how to do this on here in the past. I was going to do the same but never got round to it. Use the search tool and let me know when you find it

The main lights in the console have only got coves on them, go to maplins and get some new ones. trying to alter the lights in the switches is a different matter, it needs the whole unit to be dismanteled

There was a good write up also on IWSTI.com - The Largest STi Community on the Internet! but i can not locate it at the moment. It did look good on my JDM i did not do the switches at the bottom. but it did look good
