Is there anything we can do to change the colors on our volume/temp *****?
I'm pretty sure those don't come off with the radio unit.
It'd be a little weird to see everything blue and the big buttons all sea foam green.

Sorry for the bad picture, but yes it can be done...

Any write ups on it? I couldn't find anything on that topic. Can we just put caps on the bulbs? Or would I have to solder LEDs into it?

See, that's why i don't do it. I'd rather it be uniform and stock than all splotchy. Besides, those are very brittle area's by experience, 5 out of 7 break apart or have bad contacts. They are just a headache i am not going to deal with.

A for effort.

I don't know if this will help you but here are a few pics of the inside of mine. I used Ultraviolet LED's.. I am going to replace them with blue led's which are much brighter and will hopefully make for a more uniform light...

Get back to me when you install the blue ones. I'd defintely like to see my interior blue all over. Well except for the dome lights and such.

Do you take those in your hands and toss them in the air like as if you had a poop load of bills

i'm afraid my climate control unit is starting to head downhill. it's starting to exhibit signs of old age and might have to be replaced with a ice blue (or whatever you call that color) one this summer sometime. guess i should start the search!

Smile Nak in white = Puuurrrty :)

Did a Nak and climate in white yesterday and had to take a pic, it was stunning If it would have been a pioneer it would have been twice as bright, due to the way Nak designed the LCD.

And the matching climate Both look great, the Pioneer would be closer in intensity to the climate however.
