has anyone changed the lights on their 2004 maxima dash. i've seen tons of pictures of people that have done it but nowhere can i find how. i'm assuming they just replaced the existing leds with different colored ones but how did they get the dash off? did they need any specific soldering techniques?

thanks

I had it done and yes you need to replace around 400 tiny LED's. I can give you the info for a guy that does it, send me an e-mail...

Here's an example of the size:
