LED dash.....please help ASAP

can someone please post pics or links to pics on how to mount the resistors onto the sunroof, cruise, and fog light buttons on the dash? Can you also post pics of how to mount the 5mm LED's for the gauge cluster? I have the entire dash apart and i cannot get these to work and i would rather spend my time trying to figure it out than searching through every thread ever made on this subject so if you know where to find the info or have the info you self please post it.

please help, any help is greatly appreciated.


ive checked LEDautomotive.com's install directions but the resistors and bulb holder are bigger than the ones pictured. i believe those are 5mm, not 3mm like they actually are.

ive checked but like i said i think the blub holders are different. if you look at the instructions showing you how and where to solder, the blub holder is beige and when it shows it back in the sunroof control its green.

also, the gauge cluster has plug and play bulbs, not LED's you have to solder in so does anyone have any pics on that or detailed instructions?

It doesn't matter that the bulb holders are different, the concept on the install is the same for all the buttons.
5mm is not recommended for gauge cluster install. I won't even start on that topic tonight......

Could you walk me through how to install the resistors on the gauge cluster lights? they are different than the rest of the dash and i'm already lost as it is. if you would rather keep to to PM's thats fine too. I just need help asap as my dash is already ripped apart

I drive around all the time with my dash in various states of repair. Just leave the screws out, then just pull the clips when you want to remove it.
