All I had time to do today was the cluster and hvac. Still have the film to put on, do headlight switch, and overhead.
I have a few ****** pics from my blackberry but for those who have done the swap, does the needle for the gauge for the battery still light up? Im having trouble getting that one to light up.
Maybe the led's need to be turned 180 but its very hard to tell if it has changed after ungplugging everything and turning it around and plugging it back in, after awhile it gets hard to tell if the lights have changed lol.
And when I get the film to do the rest I will go in and fix the led by the 70 and 80 and theres one on the hvac I noticed

the dash, hvac, overhead will now match my leds by your feet and my dvd player. my map lights and dome lights match my hids and tag lights :naughty:

the blue on the gauges is dark, like the same color as the leds on the floor, just looks a little lighter in the pic.

Okla..My wallet hates you but I love you man lol bout to leave the house and head to advanced.
My truck didnt come with the factory cup holder light but it has a little plug where it goes so do you just tie into that? Is the factory cup holder only on when the parking lights or headlights are on?
