A Question for u Tech Wizards

I removed the piece that housed the Cruise/moonroof/and side mirror buttons on the EX model, the 3 buttons on the left side. I took it apart and it houses the TINIEST bulbs ive ever seen. Now, im stuck here cause they r orange bulbs and i want it to be blue....do they make bulbs this small? i didnt really see a spot where i could put blue gel paper and make it blue and even if i did it would be orange and blue mixing together. Do u paint them? im really unsure here and could use some info if u know. Wondered if they make LED's this small i mean the bulbs r prolly have the size of 1 key on ur keyboard...wicked small. Id appreciate any info.

This was talked about a while back... basically has to do with changing the dash lighting colour.

It was mentioned that you could get some coloured gels and change the color that way.
I kinda doubt you will be able to find bulbs that small in colors... unless you special ordered them from some place.

Phong, the colored gels are for the HVAC controls, the doors, cruise control pod use LEDs
