Default Interior LED conversion

I have seen people do it, but just wondering on my Z06 the whole instrument cluster is white led, is there anyone on the board that can change the rest of my switches over to white leds to match. It would look so much better. I'm talking head unit,a/c controls, and all the switches. Anyone point me in the right direction? I search for "interior leds" and political topics about Obama come up...

most of the interior LED threads show converting them over to different colors. follow the same procedure but with your color choice: white LEDs and you'll have the result you want. I think there are some vendors on the forum which over retofit services for things like the climate control and stereo. for the window controls, DIC, fog/hatch panel, and TC/AH panel you can replace the stock incandescent bulbs with LEDs. www.autolumination.com sells them, just pick white. again check out the interior LED threads for some information from others who have converted them to red or blue or anything else. just follow the same tips but with white LEDs. please post pics when you are done! I have mine in blue right now, but might be intersted in white if it turns out good.

Look up Tstar. He's the LED guru and he does conversions.

And for your reading pleasure...

I've had way to many problems with the orders I've received from autolumination.com I will never order from them again and I'd prefer ordering from a supporting vendor.

Talk to TStar...he just helped me out on my first couple of LED mods. I feel I must first warn you about Tim before you talk to him. He will suck you in to the endless world of the LED mods and never let you out Just kidding Tim...send him a PM...he's the greatest!
