2006 cobalt ss/sc.
And if I were to buy a 3.5v led should I calculate the resistor I need on a 12v battery or a 14v charge like the car is running

 

i had my bezels out today and the unlock/lock button isnt an LED. its an actual bulb. only the up/down on the window is a led -__-

 

Does anybody know where to get a new or used (working) stock bulb?

PM me if you have any to sell...

 

If anyone needs their HVAC done, hit me up!

Examples:

Red and yellow


Purple


Red and Blue


Blue


I can do any color combo you want!!

 

Kinda wanting to go a different route, especially after seeing the white door controls.

I have a very custom idea for the gauge face, and it will probably not match the rest of the trim but what about going PURE white for HVAC, PRNDL, and steering bezel?

obviously a white LED, but any additional steps in removing that crappy bluish green factory tint from anything?

 

i would like my cluster and hvac blue...do u still do them for people?

 

you have to sand it iff and youll need a new overlay for the hvac. not something ive done yet myself, but i have seen it done

i have a blue hvac board, but wasnt happy with the cluster board so im redesigning it.

 

yes i do. what cluster and year? i have an 08-10 base and two 05-06 ss clusters right now, pm me

 

I did this to my cobalt after reading these forums and its awesome.. but my friend wants me to do the same thing but in green, to her 2001 vw jetta. Now i didnt get a chance to take apart her cluster gauge and everything but does anyone know what size led's would fit in the cluster gauge??

OR do you think it would just be best to just get some 5mm, 3mm, PLCC-2, and 0805 SM LED's just like i did for my cobalt?

 

I just ordered these from super bright leds will they work for my hvac controls ?

20 | 5050-B1200: Blue 5050 SMD LED | $ 0.65 |
5050-B1200: Blue 5050 SMD LED
------------------------------------------------------------
10 | RL5-B5515: 5mm Blue LED | $ 0.65 |
RL5-B5515: Blue LED
------------------------------------------------------------
15 | RL5-B08-360: 5mm Blue LED (360 degree) | $ 0.79 |
RL5-B08-360: Blue LED (360 degree)
------------------------------------------------------------

 

How Much is the black cats kit? The website is confusing. Bc if u go under the led lighting kit its the same as going under gauge face. Dose the kit come with the face all for 89?

 

is that center cap for the steering wheel just held on by 2 way tape? how did u get it off?

 

I put blue leds on mine, how do I make the red areas stay red? They are now like a dull purple

 

Why wont you share how you did this! D:

 

Is it 12 volts on each bulb or are all the bulbs in a series?

 

What was the secret?

 

Subd for later

 

put some orange stickers on the back side of the areas that need to stay red


just realized, thats an old question

 

 

That looks amazing, all of it.

 

thank you rains_crusader!

 

Looks good!

 

My info, reset, A/c, rear defrost, and recirculate buttons stopped working on my 2009 Cobalt. All other steering wheel controls work. Checked on forums, google, whatever. Checked all possible fuses. Any ideas?

I just put LED lights in the HVAC and then this happened. Don't think that would've affected anything. Can't figure it out and it's really bothering me!

 

09XFE, what would you charge to do a dash cluster white and red with a white DIC, and white HVAC? I have white LEDs on the HVAC now, but with the blue film on the actual housing, it looks like a light blue instead of white

 

Had a bad blower speed switch and 2/4 bulbs burnt out in my hvac controls so I spend $25 on ebay on a whole "new" unit and to my amazement all the bulbs were burnt out on the "new" one. ordered some diffused white 12v led from led switch and went to work, TURNED OUT GREAT.



Bench tested with a 3s Lipo from my rc car (axial wraith spawn)

This was so easy I just might tackle the steering wheel and gauge cluster next!
