Ok I currently have my celi parked in my garage gutted (no cd player, gauges, air conditionar controls plus all the plastic parts to get to them) so I could fool around with it tonight. I pulled apart the air conditionar controls only to find out that is uses several leds. I want to change the color to blue (plus the one for the ac button is blown out anyways) but don't know where I can get them and what type. I am hoping to do this tomorrow so I can get the car back together so any help is appreciated.

I believe that you have to use small LEDs that are hard to find and may require resistors to light up correctly. The easier method would be to paint the buttons and knobs...that's what I did and it looks good. Though you do need to replace the A/C LED anyway...
If you do a search for "+climate +control", you should find what you're looking for. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

yes the LEDs are the smaller type but you can just file down the clear plastic a little bit and it'll fit fine, or so I assume. that's what I did when I modded my PS2 controller. I really wish I still had my celica because that was the project I was about to start right before the wreck. anyway, defgeph, doggy, sapperk and a few others have done it so you might PM them.
