Thunderbird custom themes

I'm trying to change the colors on Thunderbird, and I want it to match my Firefox colors. I have customized my colors on Firefox with the Firefox Color website(?) and I'm wondering if there is a way to apply that customization to Thunderbird.

I have tried exporting my custom theme from Firefox Color (both formats) and then manually installing it to Thunderbird, but it tells me the files appear to be corrupted when I try installing.

If anyone knows a way to customize the Thunderbird colors myself, rather than having to rely on pre-built themes, please let me know. I like to change the colors to match my desktop picture, so it changes somewhat often.

TB colours can be modified with userChrome.css. There are many examples on this forum for individual elements, as well as on another forum.
