Blue LCD, Digital AC
« on: June 06, 2013, 01:39:50 AM »
Hey all,

Has anyone changed their amber lights to blue? I have done some of mine, but now I'm looking at a Digital Climate control swap from my analog...and this has an LCD. I have seen people who have changed the LCD from amber to blue, but I don't know how they did it. Any thoughts?

605nm orange LEDs will match the factory color perfectly. Solder those onto whatever you end up using.
