For All Electronic Geniuses out there

I installed reverse El-Glo blue gauges from speedhut two weeks ago and they look great. Problem is the rest of my dash lights up stock green at night. I personally would like to change the rest of it to the blue color of the gauges to match. Well I have figured out how to change everything except the 3 switches at the bottom of the center console (Rear Defrost, Trac Control, and the Fog Lamp Switch). I pulled the switches apart and there is a small green led in there. I went to radio shack, switches in hand, and showed the guy. He told me he didnt carry leds that small. Does anyone have any idea what size or right type of led I can search for on the internet so that I can replace it and make it blue? At this point, any info would be helpful.

Try digi-key.com. They carry surface mount LEDs that are so small you will need a magifying glass to see one when not lit.

Silvergt02,

When you get it all finished, could you do a writeup? This is something I have been wanting to do. The My Color was almost a bigger sale than the engine of the 05's to me.

I have been having such a hard time trying to get the led lamps, specs, etc. I WILL DEFINATELY DO A WRITE UP with PICS once I get it all done. I am determined to make my dash light up blue
