Hi,

I have a Coolermaster HAF 922 case and I want to know if there is a way to change the color of the power LED. It comes red but I want to change it to blue.

I search on Google but there is not any video showing how to do this.
 
Solution
depends on what type of led that it is, on how easy it is. if it's a 3mm or 5mm led bulb, you can usually just get another led and clip the wires and solder them or electrical tape if you have to.

if they are smd led's, those are harder to desloder and replace but can be done if you are good at soldering.

the other thing to consider is how much voltage is the led circuit currently putting out. sometimes led's of different colors need different forward voltages.

Solution
Pretty much, bust open the front panel and figure out what size the LED is. Get yourself a Blue LED of that size, figure out whether you will also need to add a resistor to the circuit (a multi-meter will help here to determine what the voltage and amperage is before you cut the stock LED out) and solder it in.
