Please do a step by step DIY. I would love to change the lights on my radio since the green color is kinda bland.

There have been how to's already done in forum

Base Model Radio

http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...68&postcount=1

for the other model radio i think its for the Sedan S

In the first on there are a couple of more How To's
Radio, A/C Controls, Gauge Cluster, Door lock Switch, Fog light switch, Door window Switch. ( I just should have said all lol)
Hope these help

I had my 6-CD Toyota radio done in super white LED. I also did my center console controls, gear shifter, door lock in super white LED to match. Nice uniform color for my dash area, to match the stock super white speedometer. Looks fantastic, and no more GREEN!

There is a DIY for the radio, here:

I could never understand why they used green. I mean it looks so cheap. Maybe cause it was cheaper than white. The led store had a clearance on ugly green and toyota decided to take it off thier hands for a bulk sale or something.

I remember doing this to mine, and posting the results, before we lost the site, all I have left to do is the AC knobs. My GF mentioned that the new 09 Yarises she saw had a different color light inside, she said it was grayish, now the puke green we 07's got. Can anyone confirm this?, and post pics when done.
