I thought that the red (this is only on the XX-7's, not all LEDs) comes 
from plastic lenses they put in the case, not the lights themselves.  Are 
the lights colored?  If not, there's a ton of ways you could make those 
light up blue for cheap.  I might do this even if I don't paint my case!

The LEDs themselves are cheap. The problem is powering them. It 
depends how the circut is set up. If it is just a straight voltage 
powering the LEDs (as opposed to current control) there will be a 
problem. Blue LEDs need more voltage to light up. If the scheme is 
current control (I might be able to tell if they used one of the 
standard chips for this application) the LEDs should just plug in.
