Default Blue LED Door Switches

I wanted to install blue LED's into my door switches. After I bought everything I realized I could not install them. Too much for me. I asked Eric, truebluecoupe on the forum and he said just send it to him. Eric just sent me back my blue LED switches and I cannot wait to install them. He even tested them on his own car. Great guy. Thanks again Eric!!

Nice to get help like that. You're gonna love 'em.

In case you need to reference an install later to do an adjustment or replace a bulb, check out www.spdkilz.com

Go under Tech Tips and then "Blue LED install"

Hope that helps.

This is not hard to do at all. I did my door panels and also part of my dash. Looks really good. You can get the LED's on Ebay real cheap. I got 20 of them for like 5 dollars. If anyone needs help just let me know. Thanks.

This is a must do mod particularly when button lights look yellowish.
