So I can’t find any details on this whatsoever, my goal is to change the color of the nighttime glow of the dashboard and steering wheel buttons. I do have my color in mine and the 6 gauge instrument cluster but I’m starting to dislike the green glow that all of the buttons in the dash and steering wheel have. I’ve looked up the oem knobs for climate control and the info/reset/setup buttons and they all have white on them, meaning the backlight has to be green, because what they shine through is completely white. I just wanna know if anyones ever tried to change the dash glow lights or if it’s even possible.

I don't think those lights (steering wheel, radio, ...) are controlled by the "my color" feature, the only choice is blueish whiteish greenish

There's a write up somewhere on changing all of those little LEDs. I'm pretty sure they're soldered in place. It's a ton of work but can be done if it bugs you that bad.

I just got a thing for all the little details and it’d be really cool if I could change literally every single light at the same time. I’m certainly not afraid of the hard work, I enjoy a challenge. Would you be able to send me that write up somehow?

I don’t believe so either, I’m pretty sure I’d have to take the whole thing apart and change all of the lights individually

I think I downloaded the writeup from here but decided it was more work than I had time for and deleted the file again.
