changing dash illumination color

so ive been searching a lot on information on how to change the color of the interior lighting from orange to blue. It seems like its pretty complicated and I dont really feel confident doing the soldering myself. I ran across this website http://ledmods.net/0307g35.html and it seems that u can just mail them ur parts and the turnaround time is just 1 day and they will send it back with whatever color u choose. And then u just reinstall the guages...etc and its all blue?! if anyone has had any experience with this company or if an admin on this site wants to contact them about a group discount they said they would be happy to listen

Am curious, so did you ever get those mods done to your ride? If so how was your experience with the company and with your product?

I might be looking to have those done to mine also. Thanks!

There is a number of people that have done it now

Heres my threads on it:
https://g35driver.com/forums/audio-video-electronics/210637-custom-vista-ultimate-8-4-xenarc-touchscreen-fingerprint-evdoreva-carpc.html

https://g35driver.com/forums/lighting/145961-custom-guage-cluster-finally-done.html

You will be paying upward of 500 im guessing considering they charge 80 just for a deck face. that is if they would even consider doing parts like the cluster since they have to sand the back or some how remove the orange film.

I would also hesitate sending to a company like that. Go to the customers rides section and all the work they have displayed is just neon tubes everywhere. Website sucks.. I wouldnt send them my oem parts even if I didnt know how to do it.
