The hardest part is going to be the headlight switch, and getting the LED's aimed properly to light up the whole thing...

Make sure to get wide angle LED's Here is the ebay store that I got my LED's from... Shipping was quick, too

 

Cool, thanks drperry. I'm going to get me some of those. I changed my mind to the blue ones on my way home from work today when I saw the numbers were blue on my gauges. Which ones of the panels opened up easy so you can change the bulbs and which ones did you have to drill holes into. Do you have any tips to make it a little easier?

 

Well, since you're using LED's instead, they're entirely too directional to put in the place where the original bulb was... The wiper one is the easiest...

I'll go pop the panels out and take some pics, after I'm done converting the latest batch of movies from my adventures today...

 

Cool. I'm thinking of when I drill the holes to get the led's in, I would look for some small rubber corks or grommets or something and poke a hole through and fit the bulb in there kinda like it looks like it's meant to be there and not like a McGyver job, ya know. Do you think this would work. I like clean wiring and stuff, not stuff going here and there and everywhere. Okay, I admit it. I am a perfectionist lol.

 

You'll need about 2 LED's for each panel

And if you use the right sized drill bit/knife technique, the LED is held firmly in place by the plastic

 

Well, it took me awhile, and since I don't know if editing a post sends out notifications for people...

Here's what the back of my wiper and 4x4 switches now look like...

In the pics, where the wire enters the housing, is that where the LED actually stays or do you snap off the rear cover and put them in elsewhere?

That's where the LED actually stays...

With the exception of the left set of wires on the 4x4 switch, that one is mounted inside, so as to give a more complete light up of the buttons...

 

Super cool mod bro! I might have to give this a try!

 

Anyone know about the power window and locks light panel. I have some out and was thinking of trying this to them too, I am going to pull it apart today since I couldn't see last night. I'll post pics if I do anything to them.
