To replace colors you can use simple selectors.

You can use several selectors for one SVG.

For better understanding of selectors check examples.

###Selectors:

####[color] All fill and stroke attributes ####[fill]|[stroke] All fill or stroke attributes ####tagName[fill]|tagName[stroke] fill or stroke tag attributes with name tagName ####.className[fill]|.className[stroke] fill or stroke tag attributes with class className ####colorGroupN All colors in SVG are grouped in color groups. N - group index, starts from 0 (from the top of SVG document) #####identifier[fill]|#identifier[stroke] fill or stroke tag attributes with id identifier ####colorN All colors in SVG have index. N - index, starts from 0 (from the top of SVG document)
