all u have to do is take the panel off, and unsolder the stock led and solder an new one on, very very easy

3mm or 5mm LED, color of your choice. 3.3-3.3V MAX 30mA
Any LED you buy will work on that board since you are already replacing an LED that is already there and resisted correctly.

I know I did
The only thing is it's 10 times harder.

you have to cut it out and resolder the new one in w/ a soldering gun

thats simple, either i can buy the part from acura or just stick a led in the door, then run the 2 wires
shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to do

I recently did the mod on both doors. You just need to run one wire (the hot wire) to the passenger side door. The hot wire is the one that is pulsing the current and the other is just ground.
The next mod is change the flashing red light in the stock radio to blue.
