Can you do 05-07 radios? And did you just use transparent paint on the bulbs? Looks sweet!

^ he swaps out the LEDs,
07s are easy but time consuming. There's like 32 tine surface mount leds that are the size of one of the date numbers on a penny

This^^. Yea I can do the older ones just its already been done. The 08-10 radios only use 5 single leds to light the whole face up.
