Override the SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey (and SystemColors.HighlightTextBrushKey if you want):

<ComboBox>
    <ComboBox.Resources>
        <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}">Red</SolidColorBrush>
        <SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static SystemColors.HighlightTextBrushKey}">Blue</SolidColorBrush>
    </ComboBox.Resources>
    <ComboBoxItem>One</ComboBoxItem>
    <ComboBoxItem>Two</ComboBoxItem>
</ComboBox>
