I never got the resisters. Kinda got side tracked with my new car alarm project and honestly forgot about this lol. Where did you get the deal on the LEDS?

He's talking about a topic I posted back a little while ago for changing the LED lights on some of the dash controls from green to blue (or whatever color you want really) Let me see if I can find the how-to's again to repost

I'm interested in this because I'm having problems with the LED being used in my map/dome light.

Dan - have you had a chance to get any info on that?

first of all here...I need to clarify he didn't pay .03 for 65 of them...that was each. then shipping.

I'm having problems now with my dome light not turning off and I can't figure out why...it draws less power.  ugh

yep got off ebay. $.01 + $5 s/h on each or 3 auctions. Haven't gotten them yet but I gat all these for the price I would have spent through Mouser to get the exact quantity I needed.

As for yellow. The foglight "on" light is a yellow led. I actually just noticed that this morning. Yellow should be fine. I am going to try an Ultra Violet one for the "fog on" light to see how it works.

Okay, what the heck is a zero ohm resistor?  if a resister is good for zero ohms, then it's not resisting anything.   ?????

Also, the ones on ebay ... not seeing an 550 MCD ones ... ?

yea that resister was messing me up for a long time. No matter where I looked I couldn't find it (or even really understand it's purpose). If you use the colors to match with other resisters you can get close. I've considered just trying it with out them.

As for pictures Carmen have you clicked on the how-tos they have pictures.

Waht I have found out by loking at the wire diagram is that all the LED's power goes to the headlight switch first than gots to the doors. So I figured if there were no resistord used in the headlight switch than they may not need to be used in the doors as well.

I got my LED's in and got some changed out already. Now I just have to plug them into the car and see how they look. I will take pic with the mixed (stock)green LED's and the red one's I am using in my car. I may tear appart the Sedan tonight and check it out or just wait till I can get to the car that is already torn appart.
