Changing led color of instrument panel

Hello, while browsing I came across some pictures of an 8th generation civic with the instrument panel a pink or purplish color instead of the lights being blue and I wanted them instantly! I understand it would be a lot of work but has anyone gotten this done? Also, can the radio light be changed from blue as well?

Re: Changing led color of instrument panel

if you have 8thgen, should be very easy. the regular civics have blue and the SI has red. should be a matter of swapping clusters.

Re: Changing led color of instrument panel

just make sure the new cluster matches the mileage of the old one or as close as you can get. miles are stored in the cluster memory.

Re: Changing led color of instrument panel

Yes, that would be exactly what I would want but wow does that look like a lot of work. I would take it to a shop to do it because I don't know the first thing about this stuff. It turned out great though. Makes me more excited for it!
