Connex 3300 lights.

My meter light went out and i was wondering instead of getting the white light again is it hard to make it light up blue like the newer radios? I would like to get the channels and the meter blue but cant spend alot of money. And if it cost too much to be worth it,, Is it expensive to change the light? Or can someone like me that doesnt know much at all do it? Thanks in advance.

you can do the meter yourself. the led (channel display) i think you have to change the whole thing. if you had the light for the meter and the blue led for the channels its just resoldering them in.

The channel display isn't too hard to do if you are careful about removing the old one and installing the new one. I recommend some kind of blue cellophane over the channel windo to darken it a mite. The meter isn't hard either. Just use a high-brightness LED with about a 560-ohm resistor in series, and solder it to the original light bulb leads.
