Change the color of the Scroll Bar in "Map mode" - Visual Studio 2015

How can I change the color of Visual Studio's scroll bar when it's in map mode? This is picture of what it looks like for me right now.

Basically, I just need to make the colors transparent so they blend in with the background. This used to be part of Productivity Power Tools, and I remember you could change the colors in those settings. But in Visual Studio 2015 it's been built into the IDE and there's no obvious settings for the colors.

I am also using the Color Theme Editor extension, but if the color setting is editable from there, I can't find it.

I know it's possible to change these colors because I've changed it before (my colors got reset recently). Does anyone know where these settings are?

The colors are changeable using the Color Theme Editor extension by changing the "Text Editor -> Overview" colors. Specifically "Text Editor -> Overview background -> Background" and "Text Editor -> Overview visible -> Background".
