How to color elements of latex matrices

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I wonder how to set a color to individual elements in a matrix.

matrix2 = TexMobject(r"\begin{pmatrix} 4 \\ 3 \end{pmatrix}")

I would like to colour the number 4 in red. When I break down the TexMobject for the matrix into tuples in order to run matrix2[x].set_color(COLOR) I get an error. Can somebody explain to me how I can split a matrix in Tex format. Greatly appreciate it!
