Does anyone here know how to change the bulb inside the control panel on the steering wheel?

I feel like there's probably some way to remove it, but am too much of a noob to figure it out on my own. I'd like to replace the dim orange bulb with a nice bright blue one.

They are LEDs, pretty much you have to remove the front horn. there should be two star shaped screws (one on each side of the steering wheel). that will allow you to release the horn, and no the airbag will not deploy, then you have screws holding in the silver controls.

Here is a link to a DIY guide. Careful though, it's not as easy as you think because they're not bulbs but LEDs soldered to a circuit board. Good luck. :)
