Default Changing LED's

Ok guys, heres one for you. I have an 05 636. Blue of course. I would like to know if anyone knows how to change out the LED's from inside of the gauges. What I want to do is take out the amber light and make them blue. Is it hard to do or should I not even bother. Please someone let me know.[sm=smiley25.gif]

It can be done. its just a matter of taking the gauge a part unsoldering the old leds and soldering new ones. heres a write-up from a member on kawifourms http://kawiforums.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=33730 so it can be done with knowledge.
