Sorry for not responding to you man, things have been very busy over here... then i forgot you asked me a question.

but i used 6000mcd blue 5mm led's for the buttons. be very careful taking apart the climate control... i broke it the first time i took it apart. And i have an aftermarket radio, and they came with blue led's... i didn't do a sway on that.

I didn't do a write up, but if people want one, then i guess i could try to make on with i pics i took... but it will not be a "step by step" write up.

I just did the blue conversion this weekend...it's not an easy mod. I actually only did the climate controls(don't forget the resistors) because the radio has incandescent bulbs which is a b*tch to led. I'm going to order some 3mm and try make a custom grid for the radio...unfortunately I can only get a hold of a digital camera every so often so I wasn't able to take pics...

get a peice of dark red celophane, and use clear package tape to tape it to the lcd screen it's self. then put back together, and you got yourself a white clock.
