Jean,

The LCD on the K2 is a custom design, and could only be changed by 
special order, which may cost more than the K2 itself.  It is not a 
pixel type display.
The LCD backlight might be found in a different color (not available 
from Elecraft).  The LCD itself is translucent and does not have a 
specific color to it (unless you consider shades of gray to be color.

To change it to an LED would require creating an LED equivalent of the 
current LCD display, and I believe that would also be quite a costly 
effort.
