    All I've done is the LED domelight. Next step is the instrument panel.

    Well won't be a problem. I've done my dome light, map lights, instrument cluster, A/C lights. All I have left is the PRNDL, coin tray, and the ring around the 12v.

    The instrument cluster is really easy to do

    When you did the instrument panel, what color did you use? I'm trying to find the stock colors?

    One instrument light finally failed on my '03 a few days ago so just started the changeover myself and did the cluster lighting. I also went with white and agree.. Looks great compared to dated stock orange. I didn't buy the expensive led's. We'll see if they last. Here's a pic.

    I was wondering the same thing, I look at people that run LED's and they're so bright the light bleeds through the lenses. A good example is the climate control, running LED's bleed light through and the colors of the temperature and stuff don't look good anymore. You only see the color of the LED because it's so bright.

    There is a member that is an expert on LEDs. His name is csjumper. I bought my LEDs from him.
