Blue Led Conversion For Stock Radios - The Write Up

Finally got around to the write up but deleted the first page of cardomain site......so page one is the blue conversion and page two is the how-to. I'll try and help anyone who needs it...

I have an 00, so I guess this should work for 01's also

Let me know if there are any Typos or corrections.

It looks good but that's a lot of time to do a task like that. A bit too complicated for me to do, cuz I know I will screw up.

Well since it was a first, it took forever, a lot of safety checking, a blown fuse, finding the right power source, soldering the connections, figuring out that the faceplate doesn't go back together properly, running the wires....I tried in the write up to address all of these so that you guys have it easier.
