Invisible Man Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Has anyone ever changed the colour of the LED Display in the dash....It looks really out of place for some reason and fancied a blue one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 One of my fellow mods did, it was a long process though from what I remember! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeccaaCat Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 My other half has, it's called an SMD conversion. Involves taking the dashboard apart, getting all the boards out and soldering new LED lights onto them then wiring it all back up. Takes a few hours and and VERY steady hand or and few hundred quid to pay a professional to do it Sent from my SM-G900F using Ford OC mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invisible Man Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Think I might leave that then....in the Corsa (Sorry) you could just replace the bulbs in the back with different colours. 10 minute job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 yeah the LED's are a bit more tricky, it takes a steady hand but you can make a good job of it with a soldering iron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
