Bring this old post back: [Changing a single instance of an icon](https://meta.discourse.org/t/changing-a-single-instance-of-an-icon/251514)

I need to change single instances of icons throughout the site. I do not want to use `replaceIcon()` and override all instances of that icon. I see in the past they made this possible for specific areas of the site, or that is how it reads, but not throughout the site.

For instance, I want to change ONE of the cog icons in search to better reflect what happens when the user clicks it. I do not want to change all cog icons.

Thanks!
