    Avid front light bar, Avid bolt on sliders, Avid rear bumper protector, T-Rex grill & bumper insert. Still lots to do though.
    I'm thinking about the blue with red needles for my 2012. I'll have to wait till after the holidays though. Hopefully you're still doing it.

    I noticed I did a terrible job soldering and one of the leds either went out, or died. Sad day now that I have to go back in there and fix it

    I didn't want to do them at first becuz I was scared :anonymous:....but now I do them Lol.

    I use nail polish remover to take off the "orange" paint on them from the back side and then use white or blue hobbie shop acrylic paint to make them the color people want ontop of the LEDs

    Blackshirts is in your area so if anything you can go check out his work :thumbsup: looks legit to me

    2 5mm leds with a resistor on the + end (longer prong) and solder them on to the actual button...

    like this^^^

    Edit: its alot easier to use 3mm leds instead of 5mm because they are smaller...but these worked fine for me :cool:
