Is it possible to change the green glow coming from the buttons to roll your window down and up?

i believe it is, but it is a pain. you would have to pull the door panel switches off, take them apart, and find the little light inside them. you would need a soldering iron to take the light out, most likely it is soldered in. it would have to be replaced with a small enough light. it is prolly using an LED light. but u never know what its like until u get it open. the green glow could be a colored lens on the button itself. in that case u would have to find out how to remove that film and put new over it. it can be done but is prolly a PITA. there was a place listed on here that would do it for you. but cant remember where i saw it. if i find it ill post the link

go to that one, the guy is selling some. he may have some left over. there are others who have done the color swap. do a forum search for window buttons and you should find more forums abt it. hope this helps out

Well all those ones he has are blue.
I'll wait for more responses but thanks for your help, and I might just take a look and try, probably mess something up, but oh well lol.

ive been wanting to try a set in red, if i do one ill let you know.
but if you have basic soldering skills you can do all the lock and window switches yourself using leds and resistors off oznium.com... you just have to look at them and they make sense. good luck

It's not that hard, you need 3mm leds. When you take the switches apart you can just pull the green leds out with pliers. Keep track of what's positive and negative and solder the new ones in there.

Yeah, it's a major PITA to do that mod. But if you're intent on doing it, check eBay for led's. I got a pack of 100 led's and resistors for $5 shipped from china. They're fairly decent quality, and are VERY bright.

Well I don't have a sunroof. But what about like the 4 switches that are on the driver's door, is that possible to do?
