So my car (2003 VW GTI) has a red theme to all of the stock buttons.

Has anyone removesd teh faceplate off of a D2 and tried to replace the filter (if possible) to get something ither than a green light?? Or are there LED's that control the green colour, making this impossible?

The LED's are green. If you were REALLY skilled, you could de-solider the LED's and replace them with red ones.

I have done this (not on a d2) on a factory hvac system and it worked out 'ok'. KNowing what I know now, I dont fell it was worth it. Maybe the same is true for the d2 led's

I've actually debated buying a faceplate (for the N series) from ebay or something and giving it a try.

Doesn't seem worth it, because even if it works, the buttons on the top of the screen will still be a different color (and those I'm definitely not fucking with).

By the way, does anybody know if the faceplates between the n1-n3s are interchangeable?

The LED's are green. If you were REALLY skilled, you could de-solider the LED's and replace them with red ones.

Darnit - I consider myself 'more than average' skilled - but I highly doubt I could tackle that......

What year is the vw and model??? its easy to replace the heater control light..Just pull the center knob off the heater conrol and the bulb is right there you'll need a small peice of vacuum hose to get the bulb out

Like it?
