Well i had some extra time on my hands and had a few lights burnt out on my Dash and Steering Wheel controls, So i decided to replace all the lights with Red LED's.
I have most of it all done and converted over but still got a lil bit of tweaking to do to get rid of a few Hot spots. Sorry for the crappy pics none of them turned out and it's a lil cold out today but will get some better ones Tom. Night...






If anyone else is gonna try this out, Let me know i took lots of pics of the process along the way that will make it a lot easier for you.

Thanks!! It only took about 3-4 hours of replacing all the bulbs(thats with a few breaks and drinks) And i am still messing around a bit with the placement of the Led's for perfect coverage, but thats not taking very long at all. Also i am just seeing how i like the Red for now, i was planning on doing a Bright White Or Blue.
I ended up using - 3MM Red Led 2800Mcd and 470 Ohm Resistors. Than just your basic Soldering Iron/Gun, Solder, Heat Shrink, Screwdrivers Etc.
Here are a few more pics but my camera is crap and not turning out in the dark.
Here's the climate control and Park/Stability Buttons(Everything matches perfect in person)


Here is the only pic that turned out of the cluster
