Default Climate control lighting question

I'm trying to figure out how to change the color that is on the climate control buttons...

here is a picture of the button that i am talking about:

(the green light in this picture)

is that light just being reflected off of the 2 74 bulbs currently in there or are there single bulbs in each button?

each button that lights up either green or orange is an indivudual LED.
the background, that part that shows what the button does and scales for heat/air conditioning are lit up by a pair of 74 bulbs.

Yup, and I'll warn you, it's not worth the time and effort to change those bulbs in the buttons.

I was told that there is a green reflective piece in the buttons that makes it green, but the bulb itself is white...has anyone tried or done this? yeah i've been hearing it is quite a bit of work...
