no it can't be done. It doesn't have bulbs they are unchangable LED's.

Yeah, nothing beats the blue in the VW's. My GTI VR6 had that and looked great. One of my favorite things about the car.

My Jetta TDI blew a few bulbs... when I took the instrument cluster out, I found that they were standard bulbs but with blue rubber covers on them.

Don't know if our cars are like that.

It can be done if they are VDO

$50 for a cluster illumination change to white, blue even green.

Look at this Mazda 6 I did
