Question Instrument Panel Gauge Lighting

Okay, so after reading several posts using the search feature, I still don't have an answer. Is it possible to change the lighting on our instrument panel. Mine seems to be a greenish color. Would like it more blue/white to go with my theme inside the car. Anyone know?

Yea, i think it is, but you gotta be very delicate, it's just an LED, all you have to do is find that same type of LED and desolder the LED then solder it again. I think that's what it is. I've read on a japanese webpage where some guy did this.

you sure it's LED? I heard it's a cathode tube.
