what a job smds
Just fitted blue LEDs to my passenger window switch and steering wheel controls. Got them from crazeyleds. What a pain in the ares. Had to reprofile my soldering iron to get a finer tip, once that was done it made it easier. Gone for the classic blue. Looks good and works. [MENTION=3]Gairo[/MENTION] said it was hard job. Anyway only another 50 ish I think to go. Wish me luck guys. Going to start a propper progress thread on my H when I get a new computer. Watch this space. Thanks people!!

Told you it was a pain, wait until you open up the BID
ps: the heater controls have PLCC6's inside, they're fun
