Default 07 Silverado Clastic CC - LED dash/switch swap

Tools:
penceil solder iron,
5mm, and 3mm LEDs
470 resistors,
long nose plyers,
needle nose vise grips
1/8" drill bit
and lots of patience

edit 6/18/09 photo bucket killed some links, here's a vid for now. This is Rays (Perezownzu) 06 excab. The whole dash was done. The camera makes it brighter than it really is.

99-02 the LED is on top, pointing upwards.
03 and up has the LED on the bottom of the board point up, so I just made the hole bigger.
