Swapped out a friend's dash lights to white/blue. No more green! Still waiting on more LEDs though.

Changing the color of the LEDs doesn't affect the brightness. Our cars have LEDs back there from the factory, and even if you change em out to other colors they will still dim at night just like the OEM green LEDs do.

ooh they dim at night? didnt know that! i thought they would be as bright as the interior LED's (dome, map light, etc). thanks for clarifying!

any idea how much the job would be? around $500 ?

They don't really dim Raj
The LEDs used to swap out is a brighter one but it's not super bright cuz of the size. If you've driven the new RX at night the LEDs are probably just a little brighter than the stock RX dash. The new RX comes standard with white LED.

Around $300-$450, depending on what you want done. Cluster, console, etc.
