Default Dashboard Backlight Color

Hey everyone. I was wondering if its possible to change the color of the backlight in the dashboard on my 2010 Mazda 3 iTouring sedan? When I turn headlights on, the stock color is red along with the backlight color on the center console.

Is it possible to change it to blue like in the new 2012 Mazda 3 iTouring sedan? I heard that it depends on what kind of light bulb it is. I'm not sure whether its a regular bulb or an LED.
