    Just export your onw LS_COLORS in your ~/.bashrc, ex change:
from default: LS_COLORS='no=00:fi=00:di=00;34:....
to cyandir  : LS_COLORS='no=00:fi=00:di=00;36:....
    or append this in .bashrc / put it in /etc/profile.d/z_my_colors.sh:
--- cut ---
LS_COLORS=$(echo "$LS_COLORS" | sed 's/00;34:/00;36:/g')
export LS_COLORS
--- cut ---
