Can you change the led bulb or color on the IPAC LED Harness?
Timoe:
I'm thinking of making a CP with the IPAC LEDs someday but I dont like the three color scheme. Does anyone know if you can change the bulbs on these things and if so, what type bulb to use?
CJK:
Why not save yourself the trouble and get Gamecab's LED driver board? You can choose your own LEDs, plus you get the ability to drive several more without having to worry about resistors, etc.

Or just hard-wire a different color LED to the harness.
BTW, you want LEDs, not bulbs, and the LEDs it comes with use either a separate or intergral resistor, so the replacement LEDs will need a resistor to make them compatible with a 5V input.

Simply pull the bulb out of the harness and re-insert a new one. Make sure the voltage is the same.

They're not bulbs, they're LEDs and I suspect you have to desolder/resolder, not pull out and re-insert.
