Is there a way to customize the width of the firefox scrollbar? (self.firefox)

I would like to make it really thin (and potentially rounded) I rememeber having something like that on my previous PC a while ago but I can't find the CSS for it. This customization also applied to all websites I visited (including iFrames). Would greatly appreciate any help!

And here I was thinking it was too thin... Seems like they keep making thinner and thinner

Hahah, I guess I'm just picky with my screen estate. I like to maximize the space on my webpages. I have the Sidebery extension for vertical tabs on the sidebar which only opens when I hover over it and I disabled the traditional tabs shown at the top. All that's left is to trim that pesky scrollbar!

about:config: widget.non-native-theme.scrollbar.size.override, from 0 to however many css pixels wide you want the scrollbar
user.js: user_pref("widget.non-native-theme.scrollbar.size.override", 5);

Thanks! Scrollbar can't hide no more!

This looks promising! I will try it out when I get access to my laptop. Thanks a lot!
