Hi,

  Does anyone know how to do this ? Would you do a mod ? :)

What do you mean for mod ?

Change the color ?

If this is the question, yes it's easy, just change the leds and few resistor (if needed) according to the schematic, available on the deck website.

Easy for you to say.
I am not a soldering pro :)
Hence the reason I asked.

Scratch that, use a sharpie. It'll be easier.

The wiki is full of faq, the forum is plenty thread about soldering, and you can find a lot of youtube videos.

Just practice a bit with an old PCB and you will see that isn't hard.

Ysually I paint both leds and the underside of the keycaps to have more even and saturated colors.
