Default Dashboard Lights

Hey guys, I want to change the lights in my dash (they are currently red) on my 2005 Civic Reverb. I want to get blue LED lights. I've found the bulbs, I just don't know how to take the dash off to replace the bulbs. I have lights right from the left all the way to the middle of the dash. Any ideas on how to get the dash off? And maybe how many bulbs I need? Thanks.

Both I guess. Like I want all my lights on the dash to be blue. Is that possible?

im not sure man. im sure you could do it, but i wouldnt have the first clue on how to go about doing it. i know with the cluster, its just bulbs you pull out, but they are really small and would probly be hard to find one that is colored that would fit in.

Thanks for all the info guys, I'd rather just replace the bulbs in my dash if I can. Less wires.. But now I found the lights I want for my under body and wheel wells on that web site! Later.
