Center Console Light for 2013 Base MT

Hey everyone,
I have been searching all over this site for someone who has replaced the stock light with a blue led for the light that comes from under the stereo onto the small pocket in the center console.
I am trying to replace it with a blue LED but I can only find threads of people that have done this in other countries or on older model Fits.
If anyone has any idea, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot

I did the mod on my 2010 - see a short summary here https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...ml#post1199550

I used a panel from a 2012 that already had the light holes in place. Another member went a slightly different route and drilled his own holes in the existing panel. For his more detailed step by step instructions see here https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...-leds-ge8.html
