Default Interior Orange Lighting > How to change it?

I did a search on the forums for this topic but only found one or two posts that were so old the pics were no longer there.

I would like to change out all the orange lighting in my 05 xB and make it blue. I've done some searches on the net but have only been able to find a replacement blue speedometer gauge.

Thanks!

about half an hour ago I replaced the amber bulbs in the center A/C control console to blue LEDs, planning to replace the amber LEDs in the clock to blue ones as well next weekend

you can find everything you need to know in these two threads:
https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11283
https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=28496

For the AC control console I recommend replacing the bulbs to LEDs instead of just replacing the gel cap, the gel cap makes the lighting very very dim. The replacement is very easy, no soldering required.

You can find LED replacement info for both the gauge cluster and the clock in the Clock LED modification thread. Soldering is required for both.

Isn't your shop in AZ? Florida is a little far. I like that green box, reminds me of the color of my Alienware laptop.
