how many of each LED did you use? (3mm, 5mm etc.) im looking to do drivers side door switches (4, 3mm?), HVAC (4, 5mm?), passenger door switches (2, 3mm?), and the radio (4-6 5mm? possibly more?)

Mine is an '09 and its WAY different than the one in above pictures. The ones in ablove pictures would be very easy for me to convert I tried mine with no such luck its way bright in some areas and very dim in others. My radio only has 5 leds to light the entire face.

i had everything painted and all but i blew a bulb. so i ordered a new hvac and got it today.
heres a pic of just the inside plastic pieces and the back to the face painted red. only the left side and center is painted red. as shown here
doesnt look that bad just not that bright unless its night time.
leds should achieve the amount of brightness i want.
