Howdy. Got my base Stang back in Feb. When I got it, didn't realize that base didn't have My Color. Which is unfortunate, but something livable. My question is this. I have searched far and wide for an answer, but can't seem to find anything. Is it possible to change the bulbs in the gauge cluster to a different color bulb? I have found videos of it being done to older Mustangs, but none for the 2015+. Any information?

Thanks in advance.

The base cluster has white LEDs. You can solder different LEDs on the board if you want. Or swap in a premium cluster and have the mileage programmed ( I ha done for sale).

Nice to know there are options. I suppose just soldering new bulbs to the board would be the more cost effective option. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Happen to know any videos/tutorials on removing the cluster? Or is that covered in the Haynes manual? Don't have one yet.

You just have to pull the the pieces of the dash pretty easy. I haven’t taken one of these clusters apart though. Would be easier to do a premium cluster swap honestly. I think someone did this swap already. The mileage is easy to change.
