neo wedge bulbs will only work well for the fan speed selector and the inside/outside air button, if used, the a/c switch wont light, and the top 5 buttons will be dim, the defroster button has its own little bulb in there separatly as well. soldering isint too hard with practice, if you can solder well, it turns any wire job into a clean one cuz everything can be heat shrinked and look like its supposed to be there instead of a twist n tape type of job. if you want to do your cc unit yourself id look to get a bunch of led's and aim them at their respective areas to give maximum lighting besthongkong.com is a good site, bright bulbs cheap. youll have to calculate out resistance depending on how many leds you end up using. id use 3 for the temp select, one for the top 5 buttons, 2 for the fan speed OR a neo wedge bulb, one for the inside out selector, one for the a/c button and one for the defroster button. if you want to change the indicator lights theres another 9 that are needed. that will give you a VERY nice cc unit, but hey, go the extra mile and do it right the first time. pittfirefighter also will hook you up with a modded cc unit. all depends on if you want to diy or send it out for someone else to do it for you

I havent done anything to my car in about a month and i need to start working on something ! lol , well , i think my next project would be to reupholster the seats with two tone leather ( silver and black) , got quoted from several shops and it would cost me 800 bucks ! too much ! ... i noticed a how to for seat re-upholster , the how-to makes it sound too easy , i was wondering if anybody done it ? how hard was it ? what is a seam ripper ?? what kind of string did you use to sew it all up ? if i dont have a sewing maching , is it worth buying one ?
