Here Is What You Will Need: |
- Phillips head screw driver - Flat head screw driver - Tweezers
The following items are not needed for solderless kits - A fine point soldering iron ($8 - RadioShack part number: 64-2051) - Solder (can be found at RadioShack for around $4) - Crescent wrench |
The first thing we need to do is pull out the tray that is below the sunroof, fog light and cruise / TC buttons. It will come out, just pull it straight out. Remove the 2 screws from where the tray was, and pull the button panel out. (The button panel contains the vent also.)
To remove the buttons, push on the clips (see picture) on the inside of the buttons, and push them through the front. It will be easier if you remove the black metal tray guide. It is held in with 2 screws.
Take out all the bulbs from the buttons. Use a flat head screwdriver to turn each bulb 1/4 turn counter clockwise, and then lift them out.
Bulb To LED Conversion (For LEDs that require soldering) Click [here] for the bulb to LED conversion instructions
Installing The LEDs These pictures show which side is + so you know where the anode (the lead with the resistor) should go. If any LEDs do not light up, simply rotate them 180 degrees and test again. The best way to rotate them is: 1. Unlock the LED and plastic base - approx 1/4 turn counter clockwise so it can be removed. 2. Pull the LED and base out of the hole just enough to turn it 1/2 a turn (180 degrees) 3. Put it back in the hole 4. Twist it to lock it in (approx 1/4 turn clockwise).
