Default Pics of the new mod...

Most of you are used to seeing this first pic of the passenger window/door lock switch.....



Well I did something about it.......



I swapped out the little yellow square thingies(PCB mounted SMD LED's) for some blue ones.......



And the view from the drivers seat.




Now I have to do ALL the rest

The stock radio, AC controls, driverside window/lock switches, headlight switch, foglight switch, cluster, and the steering wheel controls too....

This may take a while

I had to special order them from Great Britan, not cheap either. Took about an hour, longest part was the set up of a proper ESD(Electrostatic Discharge) workspace. So I don't fry the Circuit board. And a steady soldering hand. Thats a tiny LED too!! 1/8" x 1/8"

I may offer to do this for you guys, but I want to do mine first to see whats involved in it all.

Thanks Guys
