In terms of painting the actually heat control and buttons. I'm not sure of what size bulb is actually back there, but how I would do it, and this is probably just one of a few ways, is just pop the switch off, and paint it from the back in an amber color.

I know this could be kind of tedious, and if your break the plastis cover, you need a new switch, and new from the dealer there not cheap (For my DA, a new sunroof runs 76+tax )

Here's a pic, bad example of my sunroof switch, it doen't light through, but I think you guys get the idea...

Try a hobby store. One guy on TI went to an office supply store and used the orange tabs off dividers.

i did the climate control but skip those two you did. You can do it but might be challenging because you have to put the vynil the very little hole in the tab. Its hard and i didn't bother with it.
