ive searched this term and i know how to change the led's fairly easily. what im still in the dark about is the backlight. i want the knobs, etc to be blue. how do i do this without painting because im afraid that will make it too dim? i read i need 5mm LED's with 220 ohm resistors, but i dont know where to put them.

I would be interested to know how to do that too. the bulbs are like 74's....12v ??amps. the leds are like 3v and 30ma. Their are more than the three 74's, theres the real flat leds that are for the buttons. those would have to be taken out with a soldering iron.
