    I have an A/C panel illumination light that has burned out. It looks just like the one that is used in the mod. Did the mod a few years back. Anyone know where to source that bulb, or the part number.

    It seems there is a spot for a bulb on the back of all the switches, it just doesn't have a bulb installed (and no wiring for it), I know people like LED's, but for a factory look/feel, why don't people just install an appropriate bulb?

    When I installed mine, you couldn't tell what type of lighting was behind the switch. (See post #5) Plus, those little bulbs are like $12 each from the dealer vs slightly more money for leds that will potentially last the lifetime of the truck.
