Default Aftermarket h.u. led replacement

I have a panasonic H.U. and don't like the blue led's it has. since all the colors in my car are green I would like my H.U. to be green.

anyone know how to do that?

just rip it open and find out how many and what size led's it takes. Blue to green shouldn't require any circuit mods.

just watch out for the screens. You can crack them (not really a problem with the stock HU) or the connections can be really weird and fragile. If you pull the HU out of the car, I'm sure someone that's done LED replacement could help you figure out how to get into it and help you figure out what size you need. Or, if you're not really excited about doing it yourself, I'm sure somebody around here could probably do it if you release them from all liability.

ya I have no clue how to do it. I'd trash the thing jus trying to get it open. I'd rather let someone who's done it do it. the deck was only $200 so I could jus replace it if I need to.

Garage1217 does the other interior LED replacements. Shoot him a PM and see what he thinks.
