Default Changing color of LEDs in fan of HAF 932?

This will be my first build and mod, I watched a video on how to change out the LEDs to a Fan Controller but not how to change out LEDs in a Fan. The fan in reference is the front 230mm HAF 932's front that is Red. I'm trying to change it to green LEDs to keep with the theme and not have to buy a new one, but I'm not sure where to get the LEDs or which ones are the right size to get. Any input would be great, thanks.

I just got mine 2 days ago and I'd want to change the LED color too if its not too hard. I want white instead of red.

from my experience, almost all fan LEDs are 5 mm while other things such as HDD activity are 3mm.

throw some purple LEDs in it!!! ive never seen it done and when i get some money i want to get a HAF and paint it white with some purple LEDs.

anyways back on topic. LEDs cost close to nothing. pick up a bunch of 3mm and 5mm rounds. they are always good to have

heres a little reference


take out your fan and compare the head to a psu screw. a 5mm will be about the same size as the screw head(in width) while the 3mm will be slightly larger than the threads
