Has anyone changed the colour of their centre console on their BA/BF from green lights near the screen (Base Model) to blue lights (XR's)? Is the green plastic just clip in or is it glued? Is it easy to change?

You will need to take out the ICC, take the front facia off and change the leds (smd leds a lil tricky to solder). Only other option is to take it to ASL and get them to change it, though i think its a few hundred?

i went down to the wreckers and picked up the knobs/circuit boards from an XR for $50 was a pretty easy change and no soldering needed

have you got any pictures? Does it look sweet?
Sounds like a good idea for a temporary solution before i do my Dual Zone climate install in my wagon?
