    How to swap fan leds

    Ok a question for you pros out there. I recently got a thermaltake spedo casing, but it has red leds. Is there a way to swap out the leds only without having to replace the whole fan. I prefer blue leds in my system. Thanks for the help guys.

    I should add that solutions that do not require soldering would be preferred.

    With out soldering . . .

    Not that I know of, they only way to swap out led to change there colour is to physically remove them from the fan, cut the wires, solder on new replacement ones of the correct colour and then put it all back together.
