Default Installing LED's in Shifter Area

Does anyone know of a writeup for installing LED's for the shifter area on an A4 or advice on how to do this. Thanks in advance for the help.

I assume you are talking about an A4 tranny. I have not seen anyone put LED's there. I have changed out everything else except for at the PRNDL indicator. I decided not to do it when I did the climate control only because I was tired of working on my car. I'm sure I will do this eventually. I would love to see some pics if anyone has done this.

You can use a #194 replacement LED bulb... I've seen some at Pep Boys recently... they have 4-5mm LED's on it.
