Thanks for this DIY! Took me about 20 mins (lining up the clip to the button when reinstalling is a bitch) but surprisingly swapping the internals of the buttons wasn't too bad for me.

Put mine in a while ago and the hardest part was unclipping the factory harness. A mini flat-head helped a lot.

Actually, I found the hardest part to be popping the whole freakin' bezel/button out lol. I had to push a lot harder than I thought.

Orange. I swapped the insides so it lights up white.

I know there's enough pics but I wanted to share my happiness so here you go.
Took me about half an hour. The most difficult part of the DIY was the uncomfortable position your in while removing and reinstalling. I followed the directions to the T and I decided to swap out the guts for the LED in the stock button.
Thanks Mazaki.
