Gizmo-R Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Cos its friggin hot and I am beyond tired I decided to do some test mods with the driver side window switches. Didn't take long for me to do the conversion on this one side but here is a taster! Work in progress me thinks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Very Is it simply a case of replacing the LED's with soldering involved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizmo-R Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 Very Is it simply a case of replacing the LED's with soldering involved? Yes it involves soldering! I use to take components off Mobile Phone PCB boards back in the days so this is far easier by comparison :thunmbs: Took me about 10mins to remove and fit the LEDs on that board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcash5 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Have the UK's only got Auto windows on one side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The air con units and cluster will be PITA! I think taking the clusters out will be most time consuming! Guides.....thank god for them!

IanS16 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Have the UK's only got Auto windows on one side? Yup I lost my passenger auto window when I did an interior swap with a GT4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 nah the air con is a piece of **** the triple guages are annoying then the speedo is just tiresome, not the LED changing but taking all the needles off and getting them back just right. driving at 40mph with your car in bits and trying to put needles back on perfectly at the same time is no easy task Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizmo-R Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 Some more stuff done whilst watch Japan kick arse at footy! Annoying on the Heater Matrix they had 12 0603 SMD led lights that light the dial which I didn't have any of so will have to do that another time! Also Added LED sidelights and numberplate lights and some 8000k HID bulbs (not shown) The normal sidelights look so pants compared to the LED ones!
