Can the door ABL be changed from Blue to Orange?

I was just wondering if I can swap out the the blue ABL on my door panels to orange.

Yup, all you should have to do is buy the orange lights and swap them out. I dont know how the orange will look against the silver panels. Has anyone done this yet?

That's what I thought...provided it's a cheap swap, I'm taking the plunge.

I put red LEDs in my doors for a short time. It looked ok in the doors, and wasn't that difficult to do. I attached them to the light tube with a piece of airline tubing.

I switched back to the ICE blue LED's after trying it out in the dash, since I didn't get good enough light in the dash.

You can use any color of LED you want. Just get 12 volt 5MM

Ultraviolet might be cool. Give yourself a blacklight effect.

I just bought the SUPER ORANGE LED HARNESS off a Gm parts discount site. Very easy install. took maybe 15 minutes. just make sure you know where all the screws are. 3 screws, 1 #30 Torqs screw, and 1 bolt. and then just pop off the panel. also you will have to pop off the mirror speaker and unplug it. It works great. I am thinking we should be able to put another LED harness connected to the other side of the digi key light tube. maybe making it brighter? Thats my next try. PM if you have any questions about install. but once you take the door panel off you are gonna laugh at how easy it is.
