NOTE- In the second picture although the color looks blue, it's actually white, not even a shade of blue. The camera makes it look like it.

So here's my project for the day, wich SHOULD have taken me about 20 minutes.
I wanted to change the red LED to a green one, simple as that, but NOOOO, the only freaking green LED wich I had, was with too short pins. So after a lot of rage, failed attempts a burned finger and finnaly burned off connections from the circuit board (because of too much heat from the soldering iron). I managed to connect the LED. And THEN turns out the original LED in the mouse somehow had a different polarity! And the green one required more power anyway.
So in the end I changed it to a white one I had, and instead of those connections on the board, I used wires.
The white color isn't as bright as I imagined, but I dont feel any sensitivity loss, wich is good. Also there's a 60% chance that I will change it back.

I don't really know if it belongs in DA, but whatever.
EDIT_____________
Screw that 60% chance! works great and looks nice
