!! I hope I can make it this Friday. I've already changed the LEDs on my dash and center console, except for the clock - I need help on that. Will you be able to do the circuit-safe fix for the center console? If the circuit-safe fix takes too long, then another time is fine for me! Thanks Squall! Oh, what's the address to your Stevens Creek?

Steven's Creek Scion - it's on the web. It's near the intersection of 280, Steven's Creek and Lawrence Expwy.

It'll be at the small service dept building at the back of the Scion dealership. Please note; the scion dealership building pretty small. It doesn't look like a normal "full-size" dealership you see on the rest of Steven's Creek. The Scion service department building is behind the dealership building on the small side-street.

^^ yipe.... yeah.. it wasn't static that damaged the board.... it was the iron..

i spent $250 for a GOOD iron this time around..... and the leds.. yeah.. that's a given.. and obviously i'll do them fine now with no issue.

also... if you do find a cluster before i do... go ahead and buy it... i'll reimburse you.

Mt. Pleasant High School.

hmm... she did look kinda familiar in the pic you have on your dash..... *shrugs*

and yeah... it was the iron... the tip got energized because of some short it somehow acquired after the many, many swaps i've done... but i spent the money and upgraded.. (when i should have long ago)
