Hi all, hope someone can help me with this question. with the interior console lights, can they be changed to another colour as I know from switching on the sweep feature a few years ago, I noticed the software cover Skoda, Audi, VW, Seat and all of these cars have different colour consoles... so it would make sence that the LEDS are the type that cover multiple colour's other than green in these cars?

Not sure on changing colours, I know VW and Seat are set to red, my MK6 Golf GTi was anyway and so is my wife's Leon. I like the idea of red LEDs but not at the expense and hassle of changing it! 

 

Pretty sure my lights are white though, mines a 2015.

Probably not - single colour LEDS only have 2 wires but RGB (multicolour) LEDs usually have four wires (common, R, G & B ) so it seems unlikely that VAG would include extra driver circuitry that will never be used in most vehicles.

 

Plus the drive voltages for different colour LEDs are not the same (due to the different bandgap to produce the different colour) so there's an added complication there.
