Can you change the stock alarm LED

Is there a way you could replace the stock red LED light with say a blue LED? do you think it's possible? And where can I find a blue LED.

well, this has to be one of the hardest mods i've ever heard of doing, but what i would do is go in the manual and look at the chart with the sizes of the LED.(If they even have it)or go to a custom shop and see what they can do. What i would do is just get some sort of scanner. they look cool and can serve as a visual theft deterent. I have a blue one and i love it

This is not that hard of a mod, just remove the clock unit and install the new LED, make sure the LED you install is the correct voltage. Most of them are 3volt ones, but some of the new blue ones also come in 12V and 5V

Why blue? I replaced my LED with a Clifford LED. Much brighter than the stock one.

Try eBay. Search for "LED bulb" or something like that.
