Interior lights..
These were not factory..
I think this is one of the mods i'm most proud of..
Every bulb in the truck is now a LED..
ALL dash peices were removed taken apart and changed to red..It looks factory and most people don't even realize that it's been done..
The only things that are not red are the map lights and the instrumentation lighting..
The map lights are now super bright white LED's and the inst. is stock...
WHY ?? you ask ???
The deal is for the most part my truck follows the rule of "form follows function"
Red interior lights are just unusable and you can't see shit in the truck at night when your looking around for stuff..This goes for the gauge cluster they become unreadable at night...
Now for the pictures..
The hemo's are holding the factory LED that had to be unsoldered then a red one solder in..


Sorry about the fuzzy pic.. But this is how the LED's come. There in a strip.


The HAVAC unit was a concern because of the replacement cost should a mistake be made..
Thankfully all went good.

Test..

Also the window switches were very nerve racking..
When they are assembled it's a one time deal they are not designed to be serviced or taken apart..

You actually have to brake the clips off to get them apart..A little CA glue during reassemble and all is good..
This is where the clip is.


Rear window switch..

This was just the HAVAC done..
I started with the hardest one..

Door lock and window switch..

I am not a photographer so I had problems trying to get shots of the lights at night..
My wife got a new camera for X-mas so I will try and get some good shots for you guy's tonight..
