How to change stock switch lights - YouTube

 

Approved.

Clean up your garage.

lol

 

Vid coulda been more organized, but still good vid. I may have to do this to my door switches, my steering controls came red

 

Lol yeah theres to much **** in it. Allot of it is from when my dad pasted away. I have no idea what to do with it.

I was board today and just shot it. I only did one take. lol

 

Do you have a link or something for the LED"s you used? Do they all have to be soldered in place?

 

I don't have a link i did the mod like over a year ago. People have been asking left and right so I threw something together. The leds are 3mm 12v Google it you will find a company that has them. For soldering.its only the ones on the dash and window controls. The steering wheel you just wrap the wire around the brown piece just like the stock ones are. Its a pain in the ass but it works.

 

Does the dimmer switch light up stock? Mine isn't on, and I took it to the dealer to replace the bulb and they said that it never lights up. I've had the car 2 months and I can't think if it was lit or not.

I should come up there one day and have you install blue ones for me You did a great job!

 

Thanks.

The dimmer switch does not light up. You could make it but its not really worth it. You would have to dill a hole in it and then put a Led in and then tap a fuse to get it to turn on when the others do.

 

I most likely will be down in OC, MD for the meet on June 6th. You gonna be there?

 

Na I wont be down there. I have allot of work to do and wont be able to go to any big meets. I mite be going to the one in PA in aug but even that is still up in the air.

 

Yeah, this will be my first meet!!

 

nice mod. can you show how you did it to the window switches on the door please?

 

Are the steering wheels different on other year models? My controls are in color matched plastic.

 

x2 i wonder if its the same kinda process with the newer style steering wheel

 

Its the same pricess you just have to remove the plastic covers

 

Give me the vid, I'll edit it for ya!

 

i went to radioshack today and did this mod love it!

 

Your radioshack had the right ones? Or did you get resistors too? My radioshack sucks they don't have anything. Did red? Glad you like

 

Woah, sweet how-to.

Gotta keep this in mind when I go blue LEDs.

 

Erod, your awesome. How have things been man? Its been forever since I talked to you...

 

ok so i tried doing the mod and ending up burning 2 of the 3 leds up lol. so what i want to know is what size led you use? i used 3mm low intensity size t-1 3volt 15mA, and can i put them in any way or is there a pos and neg?

 

You need a 12v and they wont burn out

 

You need a 12v and they wont burn out

 

did you do the lock switches and the mirror switches too? i took mine apart today and i cant see how to get the stock one out.. pics.

 

Yeha i did those too. The bulbs should be conected to something very similar. Just have to twist it out and then connect the new bulbs. I did this mod a long time ago and I don't have my car right now so I can't look. I will try and get you a 100% answer soon.

ah nvm I fig it out. See on the bottom. That little plastic holding the bulb take that out and then just work the nexbulb in.
