Gen5 What kinda of Bulb/LED are these?



these are the bulbs found in the A/C area of the car. usually, they are lit up green.. because of the "green" covering that goes over these bulbs.. i took them out to see what color they are.. and it turn out to be more of an orange color, like BMWs.. in my case, i want to change the color to Blue to match the face of my deck. i do not know what kind of bulbs/LEDs there are tho, they seem very very small. and i tried to take them out the base but it dint work and i dint want to force it and break the bulbs. anybody knoww??

Those are the same type of bulbs my Gen 4 Camry uses in the HVAC.. Those are bulbs, not LEDs..

Those are not the kind of bulbs you take off as easy as the ones in the gauges.. If you take a good look, you could see how they're attached to their plastic base.. The little wires from the bulb itself come out from the bottom of the plastic base and twist in a weird way.. Take a good look..

Now, I haven't found new bulbs exactly like those.. I have found smaller ones but the same orange-ish color.. No other colors... What I did to change my HVAC color would be hard to explain with only words because I didn't take pics. of what I did, but I don't think it would help much because my HVAC is digital, different from USA Camry's.. I have no knobs.. Just and LCD screen and buttons..

My Camry is a Japanese sedan...
