ya know the one that blinks on the door when the car is locked. right now its red like everyone elses, but i wanna switch it out to be blue. how hard would it be to do this?

thanks

 

very easy many people have done it.

I dunno the specifics on the led though. maybe its in the archives?

 

so if so many people did this, how come not 1 person can tell me if its a simple led switchout or not?

 

Simple LED switchout.

 

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

 

Does anyone know the specs on the LED?

 

Install another one on the passenger door while you are at it

I know I did














The only thing is it's 10 times harder.

 

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.

Cake.

 

so all u pretty much have to do is open it up and replace the led?

 

yup

 

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

if anyone needs the part it's part # 39895-S3M-A01ZB

 

ive never done a damn thing like this in my life...when you mean take out the led and put a new one in...does that mean literally like pull it out and pop it in? Or is there wiring involved?? I'm retarded when it comes to this.. help

 

what other led bulbs have anyone replaced thruout the interior of the car...i'd like to do this to the door panel but if i'm gonna do it...I'm gonna wanna do it to the whole interior if possible.

 

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

 

Ur not a handman it seems bro but me thinks it should be easy.Go for it..

 

ohhhhhh man lol

i dont even know what a soldering gun is

 

You got to be a master installer if you can run the wires from the driver side fuse box through the passenger door in 30min or less. If it's true , otherwise

 

Through the door is the issue. That damn rubber grommet is a bitch to get through.

 

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.

 

The issue here is not how many wires but how long it takes to run the wire. To me, it makes no difference if you run 1 or 2 wires.
