I am sure I have a couple if you want I could send them out. Just PM you address to me.

 

^^

that's an extremely kind offer. unfortunately i went with white leds.

 

hey.. is this in the tech section? i was having a hard time finding this DIY.. i thought it was in there...

 

I am very interested in this topic but I too can't find the other posts on replacing interior leds for console/gauges. Any links would be appreciated.

Should be good now!!!

 

awsome!!

now all i need is the steering wheel, wires, and deck....put it in my 05 tC and i'll be set to do the mod! *cries*

 

Haha.... I wonder what things the 06 guys will envy over when the 07 comes out.

Nice job on the steering wheel makes me want to do it now.

 

i'm offering to to the led changes for a price locally...

 

can you do it to my 05....somehow....maybe magically....lol

 

we'll see man.. we'll see.. i'll look into it.

 

Someone mentioned that you should disconect the negative battery cable when doing this but i also wanted to add that you should wait a couple of minutes aftyer removing the cablt because airbag systems hold a charge and you also need to be very careful with the bright yellow wires that you can see in some of the pictures they run to the airbags. As a general rule automakers will not use yellow on anything but the airbag wires so that you know to never tamper with them or use a testlight on them.

 

this ispobably dumb question but where do u get the LED's?

 

mouser.com or lc-led.com

 

I am looking for three red led's. I didn't have enough left over from my gauge cluster to do my sterring wheel controls. I have no problem paying a resonable price for them. Please message me if you have some extra red led's.

 

I have modified post to include links to the LED's!!

 

The Steering wheel Mod is sweet. Thanks for showing us how to do it. Keep posting pictures of mods and upgrades as it gives me ideas and so forth. Thank you

 

Man..... Am I the only one who had problem with this thing? The 2 T30 Torx Bit screws are extremely difficult to unscrew. I just had to give up after several blitzs on my hands. Damn it!!!!! I did it counterclock wise and it just doesn't move. I had the right screw head too... Any advise, laddies and gentlemen???

 

hmm? uhh... lefty loosey.. you're right..
but initially it does take a little bit of elbow grease to get loose..

i've been using a ratchet wrench to get them loose.
