    Sorry, retired from swaps. Just too busy with work and now family/kids. guess y'all will have to rely on all the upcoming millennials to do your swaps, they got nothing else to do in their parents basements anyways, right?!! haha


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    im in denver and canNOT do your cluster for you. you buy the LEDs (BUY THE CLUSTER, STEERING WHEEL AND CLOCK LEDS HERE!!) and/or (RADIO LEDS HERE!!), cluster for $60, radio for $120, steering wheel controls for $30 and 2010+ clocks for $20. i have done 100+ other clusters (including my own back in '07), a few radios, steering wheels and 2010+ clocks, so i have experience, email me your screen name to xxxxxxxxxxxx if your interested...

    for ease of reference and ordering, here is the required amount of LEDs for each aspect of the cluster:
    - Background = 11
    - Needles = 7
    - Turn Signals = 2 per side
    - Additional indicators (ie CEL, Batt, Cruise etc..) = 1 per light

    Radio:
    05-08 (JBL or Non-JBL) - 55 LEDs
    09+ (JBL or Non-JBL) - 67 LEDs

    Steering wheel - 6 total LEDs

    2010+ clock - 3 LEDs

    UPDATE:

    Blacktacoma23's 2011, craziest cluster to date! reminds me of the old school joker

    the two per blinker is not always true.. I did sock monkeys today and his only had one per arrow. his truck is a 07. I would assume 07+ would be one.

    i believe at least the 05s had two (mine did IIRC), so better safe than sorry w/ those numbers. i left them as generic as possible so its foolproof for someone that knows nothing about swapping the LEDs (hopefully!). if anything, its only a $1 worth of extra LEDs! plus you might get a bad one anyways!

    cluster = $50
    radio = $100 (i know that may sound like a lot, but there are over 50 LEDs and the screen ones are a PAIN to do. i have done one though before, so i do have experience)

    so $150 for both. same deal, you buy the LEDs and drive out to me.
