    well i had a problem with my climate control lights turning on/off buy themselves, so i replaced the lights with these: http://www.oznium.com/corvette-c5-led, was recommended from someone on here... so i put them in and now they dont turn on at all. I'm not sure what it could be. Normally after tapping it a few times, they will turn on, but they didnt.

    Also, after i put the new bulbs in, my head unit shut off by itself. I unplugged and plugged it back in and its been fine so far. Not sure if there's any relation there, but I went through and checked all my wiring and everything looks good.

    Anyway, if you guys could give me your thoughts. Im no good when it comes to wire/electrical type stuff, so any help is appreciated.

    The wedge LEDs are direction specific, try turning them 180 degrees in the socket and see if they come on.

    Sorry I wasn't clearer.

    Pull out the LED completely from the unit.
    Then rotate 180 degrees.
    Put back the LED back in to the unit and then twist to put them in place.

    Hope this helps.
