Default Led swap on HVAC and guage cluster...made to be like Avic D3

I want to do a Led swap one day. I was going to do the two tone white and blue with red needles...but as I was playing with the colors on my Avic D3(those of you that have one know what I'm talking about), I started thinking. How hard would it be to do a led swap and make it work like that. I know you need the primary colors like the avic and a fader of some sort...but I'm no electrical genius. Is this possible? Would it be hard to do? Has anyone tried it? Any ideas on how to do it? I would love to be able to play with the colors at any time like that. Please,please...I surely want to try it![/b]

Would be hard but worth it in my opinion. Especially if paired with the lighting throughout the rest of the car. Like have underbody, footwell, dome lights, all controlled by it and have it be any color you like. Maybe a 7 position rotary switch to switch through some basic colors (red, green, blue, white, pink, aqua, yellow?).

wow never thought of this. Thats a great idea and if you can do it, would be very time consuming but worth it.
