Ok guys, I know there's a million threads about this I've searched and read things about this and the clock and everything all day long. What is the best method to make the climate control unit and the selector lights turn blue? I've seen painting, drilling out the bulb holes for LEDs, complete new wiring of LEDs independent of the system, etc etc. Which one works the best and looks the best? If painting it is going to look the same as drilling and changing the bulbs and all that then I'll just paint it.
Otherwise I think the only way for the smaller selection LEDs on the buttons is to just change all the 3mm LED's, but I might try using some glass paint on the buttons first. And if anyone has pics of the final product to compare how each works that would be amazing, that's been the hardest thing for me to find. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT

This is rocky2006's
It looks just like mine.. I used about 10-15 blue LEDs, and just drilled a 3mm hole, and replaced the flat green LEDS with round 3mm blue LEDS, i got from ebay, $12 shipped for 100 with resistors. 
-------------------- If anyone needs interior stuff, etc, I'm parting whats left of my celi out. Just ask.
