Icon2 [FAQ] DIY How-to: Replace Civic 92-95 climate control bulbs BUTTONS'

PLEASE NOTE: I am *NOT* asking how to change the 'main' bulbs from the climate control, as in THIS post and THIS.

I couldn't find how to change the bulbs from each button, as indicated in the picture below.
INFO: These are NOT my pictures, so that's why I am asking these questions below.

Important questions:

# Are the bulbs replaceable?

# What kind of led can I use: the ones we use in the instrument cluster [T5 led if I'm not wrong] or the ones we use in the defog/ fog light buttons [smaller ones]?

I think it would be interesting to install led lights within these buttons since my climate control already has 18 leds on the main display (as so many users here).

Do you see a filament? If not, those are LEDs. Pretty sure they are already. So really, this DIY is pretty straightforward:

Step 1: To install LEDs in your climate control, leave it the way it is.
Step 2: Journey to a higher mental plane.

Uhm... these are not my pictures. They are from THIS thread.

Also, why are you being so rude? You really thought to yourself "Oh, look! A post where I can express my rage and superiority over the internet people while sitting in my chair"?
Man, I wish I had time to do these kind of things sometimes...

Thanks anyway, I will write down your suggestion on a yellow post it and stick it to my desk!

Don't be so butt hurt. This guy has done more research on mods and retrofitting factory options than you've even thought about. He's just giving you a hard time, but be assured that people could flame you much harder for something like this. Having said that, follow his advice.

So, I ended up with no answer, right?

My God, you kids are something, aren't you? How old are you?

I told this is NOT my picture, so I don't even know if those bulbs/lens are the original ones.

Three replies and none of them are useful at all.
So, why bother replying?!
