the face of mine did not light very well at all it was very dim. and it appears to be the same led BUT i cannot verify with out seeing or have some one measure them in mm with a caliper.

 

UPDATE ON PARTS INFORMATION

Heres a parts list of leds you will need. I used 12 volt ones for all 3mm ones, which are in everything BUT steering wheel and some radios. I used a smt 0805 led for steering wheel and that is just a normal led.
For a cluster you will need 11 leds
hvac 5 leds
lock switch 1 ea.
mirror switch 1
window switch 1 ea side
steering wheel 1 per button
radio- have not done.

 

Ok thanks man I'll update when I'm done lol

 

sub'd for lataz!

 

so sexy. i know what my next project is

 

Do you have a picture showing how/where you placed the 5th LED?

 

Under the middle of the red on the temp dial

 

My cluster is actually so dim I can hardly see it during the day time on full brightness inside a 20% wrapped tint job...

I guess Ill be peeling my gauge pod off this weekend too...

 

is this all i need the blue ones?
12 Volt LED

 

^^ yup

 

is it just me but are there no blue 3 mm 12volt leds on that site?

 

or are the blue ones

3mm 12 Volt Blue White Diffused LED's <those?

 

ide email them that just cjanged within the past few weeks but yes im sure those are the ones.

 

just wanted to throw this out there that red is kinda impossible to do this and have it be brightttt.
only way it works bestt is if the inside of the hvac face is painted red along with the plastic pieces.
because white leds and the red insides make it really dim and barely lit up.
and white leds with only the face painted red does the same thing

i think what i decided im going to do is have the left bulb and 2 center bulbs back to stock and leave the 2 leds i got soldered on the temp side. than put the painted insides and face back on and it will be red but not brighhhht red like i wanted. thats the only way its going to look how i want it to



thats how it looks now and it doesnt really match how it wanted it to

 

can someone post a link to the LEDs they used? thanks

 

one last question before i order all my parts and attempt this

are these leds in the radio pictured above them same ones as in the steering wheel controls?

 

lol already asked that didnt i...my bad

 

would these work and how many for HVAC and the "info and arrow" on the steering wheel

 

all of this info is already supploed in the previous page in bold font..

 

Got all my LEDs on order will post pics when I'm done if I don't **** anything up lol

 

how did you maintain the red of the cluster and the hvac controls im thinking of doing this and and just keeping the bulb on the very right white instead of changing it over to blue and i have a black cat custom overlay and wanna do led's so im curious

 

if you have a black cat overlay, checkthe backside of it, if they have put the red film there you will be fine, i got a black cat gauge overlay as well and jut installed blue leds in the cluster, reds still red, they had put the red film there when i bought the overlay, bought the black cat leds on a seperate ocasion...but if it does not. if you order the black cat leds they ship thered film with the leds, so i hae some of that red film they use left over to use on my hvac

 

how many LEDS would i need to do the door bezels? and can you do the foglight button and traction control?

 

if you know what your doing you can do any buttome/switch that lights up lol

 

do you have pictures of the blackcat with the blue led kit?
