for my next little project, i'm going to add individual white LEDS for each gear selector display.

You have a spare one that your working on right?

I still don't think the gear selector in the dash would look good. But your choice....

If u dont like the 3 led's, on the door panel, have u thought of angling them down a little bit so they light up the ground? Then from the top kinda paint the led's top half black so it only lights up the ground? I thought of trying something like this seeing yours I might do it. I just wouldnt want those lights visible except on the ground. Great job on all your led projects by the way!

the way to go would be put the 3 leds on the bottom of the pocket pointing towards the ground and run them off the door light switch. i was gonna do that at one point.

just use a brighter led. i'm not sure how that board is set up since i have a 98 with dcc but try to solder off the board. i.e. if its an led just cut the head off and solder the new ones to the legs rather than removing/replacing the entire led. other than that just watch your heat.
