Gauge cluster with blue VSA and cruise control indicators from the stock orange and green. White head light and fog light indicators from the stock green. The color is a little off which made my dials look orange but they are still stock red.

It took a long time to tear everything out of the TL on the first go. After multiple tests and adjustments I'm quite the pro at it now.

White Peg leg LED for the climate control indicator lights. After making some adjustments I ended up using 3.3k resistors to dim these three LEDs some more.

I used a mix of carbon film, on the blue bayonet, and thick film surge protected, on the brown bayonets, resistors. The reason I mostly used cheapy carbon film on the blue LEDS and higher quality thick films on the whites is that other members found they aren't as resilient as the blues.

It's hard to find flat top LEDs that give off the correct shade of blue. So I simply dremeled off the tops of these in order to get a wider angle of light emitted from each LED.

My LED harness that goes under the shift console. It worked great until I decided to drop the resistance a little too low to brighten the indicators up...I'll remake it once my next batch of LEDs arrive.

LEDs for the cup holders are placed underneath the rubber flaps in order to prevent light from scattering up and out along with giving them protection from dripping liquids.

Accessory adapters where placed in the center console arm rest. I dremeled a slot for the cords to fall into when their in use outside of the arm rest.

The Drive side front and rear doors were smashed when someone backed into them. Here they are repaired, but still not up to par. The doors don't close very easily and they aren't lining up very well, which you can see in the reflections. ALso the bottoms of them are really rough like an orange peel.

Easy LED placement for radio controls. This configuration uses the stock light reflection array which with the LEDs didn't spread the light quite as evenly as with stock bulbs.

This setup uses one LED behind each button and illumination point on the radio. I was running low on resistors so some are not the correct resistance. The majority use 2.2k resistance which is what I intended to use for all of them.
